How Fire Sprinkler Leak Cleanup Works in Elma

A wet ceiling can continue feeding drips into the room. The cleanup crew assesses safe access and removes materials that cannot be dried appropriately.

1. Remove pooled sprinkler water

   Standing water is pumped or vacuumed before it can keep feeding floor seams and carpet cushion.

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

   Soaked ceiling materials may need controlled removal to give a cavity drying access.

4. Verify the dry condition

   The Elma crew records a completed dry-out when the measured materials meet the plan.
