How Air Handler Closet Leak Cleanup Works in Vinson

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

   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

   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

   The crew checks moisture across the affected ceiling and nearby materials. Equipment stays focused on areas still wet. Drying tools can be adjusted when one part of the ceiling responds more slowly.

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.

• Turn off cooling if the air handler keeps leaking.
• Keep hands clear of wet equipment controls and power cords.
• Remove dry belongings from the closet only if the floor is safe.
• Do not stack damp boxes against the wall.
• Photograph the closet floor, threshold, and affected items before calling for cleanup.
