How HVAC Leak Water Damage Works in Ceres

A soaked carpet pad traps more liquid than the carpet surface suggests. The crew removes or dries affected layers according to their condition.

1. Extract the escaped water

   A technician first removes visible liquid from the Ceres floor. Recovery tools then work along the edges where condensate collected.

2. Map the wet boundary

   The technician marks affected layers so progress checks return to the same points. That record helps track drying.

3. Remove material that holds water

   Soaked insulation may block a ceiling cavity from drying. The crew removes material when its condition calls for it.

4. Dry and verify materials

   A ceiling below an attic AC unit needs readings across the wet span. Drying is complete when the targeted materials reach an appropriate condition.
