How Fire Sprinkler Leak Cleanup Works in Skowhegan

A puddle may disappear while cavity insulation remains wet. Early moisture mapping helps the crew find those materials before dampness lingers.

1. Remove pooled sprinkler water

   Crews recover shallow pools and check whether lower rooms collected water from an overhead release.

2. Trace wet material beyond the puddle

   The technician tests ceiling edges, wall bases and lower rooms for water movement.

3. Open trapped areas when needed

   A wet insulation pocket may require removal rather than surface airflow alone.

4. Verify the dry condition

   The technician adjusts equipment if a ceiling cavity stays damp after initial drying.
