How Fire Sprinkler Leak Cleanup Works in Cornell

Drying equipment works best after recoverable liquid is removed. The crew pairs extraction with repeat measurements rather than relying on room feel.

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

   Floor coverings and subfloor receive separate checks after a sprinkler discharge.

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.
