How Fire Sprinkler Leak Cleanup Works in Altona

Drying equipment works best after recoverable liquid is removed. The crew pairs extraction with repeat measurements rather than relying on room feel.

1. Remove pooled sprinkler water

   Bulk extraction takes water off the surface so the drying phase can address what remains inside materials.

2. Trace wet material beyond the puddle

   Material readings establish the affected area and an appropriate dry target.

3. Open trapped areas when needed

   Safe access is planned around electrical exposure and unstable overhead finishes.

4. Verify the dry condition

   Room humidity and material moisture are tracked as separate indicators.
