How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Wheaton

A dry touch is not a dry material reading. The technician compares affected surfaces with dry references before equipment comes out.

   A technician documents the standing water and extracts it before setting the drying plan.

2. Map wet materials

   The crew checks ceiling cavities and rooms below to trace the discharge path.

3. Open trapped areas

   Insulation holding sprinkler water may need removal before framing can dry.

4. Dry and verify

   Final readings show when salvageable surfaces no longer need drying equipment.
