Remove the standing water
A crew starts with the visible pool, using equipment suited to its depth.
-
Map the moisture
Hidden cavities are assessed where the water path suggests intrusion.
-
Open what holds water
Insulation that cannot dry safely is taken out before equipment runs.
-
Dry and verify
The crew records progress until affected materials meet the drying plan.
