How AC Leak Into Wall Cleanup Works in Leedey

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

   An air handler leak may travel under flooring. The crew tests the subfloor and nearby trim for moisture. Water under a closet threshold may follow seams that cannot be seen from above.

3. Address soaked materials

   Water that passed through dirty cavities can require sanitizing. The technician evaluates the affected surfaces during cleanup. When water crossed dirty surfaces, the cleanup plan accounts for those conditions.

4. Dry and check progress

   Drying continues until readings support that the affected materials are dry. The crew records progress for the loss file. Recorded progress shows when materials stopped holding excess moisture from the AC leak.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

An air handler can keep feeding a wet area while it runs. Turn off the AC when safe, get HVAC service, and begin water removal. Water extraction begins once the area is safe to enter.

• Stop cooling if the stain expands while the AC runs.
• Keep clear of wet switches and receptacles on the affected wall.
• Move dry furniture away from the partition if safe.
• Do not paint over damp drywall or seal the baseboard gap.
• Photograph the stain and call for wall moisture assessment and drying.
