How AC Drain Pan Overflow Cleanup Works in Jay

1. Extract escaped condensate

   A ceiling drip may create a floor puddle below it. The crew removes liquid water first, then assesses materials above and beneath the room. If a ceiling has dripped onto furnishings, those wet surfaces are documented before equipment moves in.

2. Map the hidden wet area

   A wall-mounted unit can leak behind the finish. Readings at several heights help trace how far water moved. Measurements down the wall help distinguish one drip track from a wider damp cavity.

3. Address soaked materials

   Saturated insulation may be removed so framing can dry. Damaged drywall is opened only where the wet condition calls for access. Removing insulation exposes wet framing and allows the drying equipment to work on the cavity.

4. Dry and check progress

   A floor may feel dry while the layer below remains damp. Repeat measurements help prevent an early finish to the dry-out. Floor layers are checked again before finish work begins over the affected area.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

If a ceiling is bulging, stay clear of it. The crew can assess the water safely and dry the structure after saturated materials are addressed. Do not enter the room beneath a sagging ceiling.

• Switch off cooling if the pan is full or water is spilling.
• Avoid touching the pan or nearby wiring when the area is wet.
• Move furniture away from a stained ceiling or dripping spot.
• Place a container under a drip only if the ceiling remains sound and the area is safe.
• Photograph the pan and the room below, then call for water removal.
