How Fire Sprinkler Leak Cleanup Works in Ruffin

A slow sprinkler head leak may be discovered after finishes have absorbed water. Moisture readings show the extent that a stain cannot reveal.

1. Remove pooled sprinkler water

   The removal team starts at the wettest accessible areas after the sprinkler source is controlled.

2. Trace wet material beyond the puddle

   A warm-looking image alone does not prove a cavity is dry; physical measurement matters.

3. Open trapped areas when needed

   Materials that cannot be dried appropriately are documented before removal.

4. Verify the dry condition

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