How Fire Sprinkler Leak Cleanup Works in Millbrae

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

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

2. Trace wet material beyond the puddle

   Moisture meters reveal damp gypsum and flooring that a visual check may miss.

3. Open trapped areas when needed

   Materials that cannot be dried appropriately are documented before removal.

4. Verify the dry condition

   Room humidity and material moisture are tracked as separate indicators.
