How Attic AC Leak Into Ceiling Cleanup Works in Luther

1. Extract escaped condensate

   Pooled water at the closet threshold is taken up with extraction tools. The technician checks nearby flooring for water that traveled out of sight. In a closet loss, the crew checks whether water crossed the doorway into the hall.

2. Map the hidden wet area

   The crew checks rooms next to the AC source and below attic equipment. Photos and readings record the initial footprint. The map records dry comparison areas as well as affected surfaces for later checks.

3. Address soaked materials

   Wet carpet pad may hold water against the subfloor. The restoration technician evaluates whether it can be dried safely. Pad soaked by condensate can remain wet even after carpet extraction, requiring a material decision.

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

Standing water gives porous materials more time to absorb it. Early extraction helps keep the footprint from expanding. A smaller wet footprint usually means fewer materials need attention.

• Turn off the AC if condensate is still entering the ceiling.
• Keep everyone away from sagging drywall and wet ceiling fixtures.
• Do not switch on a wet light or fan; leave electrical work to a qualified electrician.
• Move dry furniture out from beneath the stain if the area is safe.
• Take photos from a safe position and call for ceiling water removal.
