How Fire Sprinkler Leak Cleanup Works in Tallula

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

   A technician selects removal tools for water depth, material and safe access to the room.

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

   Materials that cannot be dried appropriately are documented before removal.

4. Verify the dry condition

   The technician adjusts equipment if a ceiling cavity stays damp after initial drying.
