How AC and HVAC Condensate Leak Water Cleanup Works in Bancroft

2. Find absorbed moisture

   Cabinet cavities and subfloors receive attention where a small leak may have spread sideways.

3. Remove what cannot stay

   Dirty water on porous materials changes the work: contaminated pieces usually come out.

4. Dry and verify

   Daily readings show whether equipment placement should change as the loss dries.
