How Fire Sprinkler Leak Cleanup Works in Lignum

A puddle may disappear while cavity insulation remains wet. Early moisture mapping helps the crew find those materials before dampness lingers.

1. Remove pooled sprinkler water

   Bulk extraction takes water off the surface so the drying phase can address what remains inside materials.

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

   A closed wall base can hold sprinkler water; the technician assesses whether opening is necessary.

4. Verify the dry condition

   The Lignum crew records a completed dry-out when the measured materials meet the plan.
