How Fire Sprinkler Leak Cleanup Works in Ford

Water trapped behind a baseboard needs more than a surface wipe. A technician checks the wall and monitors drying as conditions change.

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

   The crew compares suspect areas with unaffected materials in the same building.

3. Open trapped areas when needed

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

4. Verify the dry condition

   Dehumidifiers and air movers run under a plan guided by material readings.
