How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Fort Loudon

Standing water spreads into seams and wall bases while cleanup waits. Extraction starts the drying process, followed by moisture checks and dehumidification.

1. Remove standing water

   Water removal targets low spots first, including thresholds where flow has collected.

2. Map wet materials

   Moisture meters reveal damp drywall and flooring beyond the obvious sprinkler spray area.

3. Open trapped areas

   The crew removes unsalvageable porous materials and records why they came out.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers and dehumidifiers run until daily readings reach the drying target.
