How HVAC Leak Water Damage Works in Dupo
The first day matters when flooring absorbs AC water. Photos and moisture readings establish where the work should focus.
-
Extract the escaped water
Carpet can hold more liquid than the top feels like. Extraction tools pull water from the textile and pad area.
-
Map the wet boundary
Floor seams and baseboards can conceal an AC overflow path. Moisture mapping shows where the liquid traveled.
-
Remove material that holds water
Opening a wall base can expose wet framing after an air handler overflow. Access decisions follow the moisture map.
-
Dry and verify materials
After extraction, controlled air movement removes remaining moisture. The crew checks the building before finish work starts.
