How Refrigerator and Ice Maker Leak Water Cleanup Works in Moravia

1. Remove standing water

   Hard surfaces are vacuumed carefully so liquid does not keep migrating beneath baseboards.

2. Find absorbed moisture

   Pin and pinless meters show whether the Moravia floor still holds water below its finish.

3. Remove what cannot stay

   Insulation holding water can keep a wall cavity damp even after the surface feels dry.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers encourage evaporation while dehumidifiers capture moisture from the air.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Drywall absorbs water through its lower edge. Technicians check above the visible mark because moisture may have climbed inside the panel.

• Close the refrigerator water supply valve.
• Keep clear of wet outlets behind the refrigerator.
• Move valuables away if safe.
• Photograph the source and damaged belongings.
• Avoid wet electrical fixtures and contaminated water.
