Extract escaped condensate
Liquid water from a mini split leak can collect at the wall base. The crew extracts it and looks for a path beneath trim. The wall base may hide water behind shoe molding, so the technician checks that edge.
-
Map the hidden wet area
The technician checks insulation above a ceiling mark and drywall around it. Measurements show which materials need drying. Different readings across the board can show whether the overflow spread sideways in the attic.
-
Address soaked materials
Water that passed through dirty cavities can require sanitizing. The technician evaluates the affected surfaces during cleanup. When water crossed dirty surfaces, the cleanup plan accounts for those conditions.
-
Dry and check progress
Drying continues until readings support that the affected materials are dry. The crew records progress for the loss file. Recorded progress shows when materials stopped holding excess moisture from the AC leak.
