What AC and HVAC Condensate Leak Water Cleanup Includes in Slater
A Slater crew uses meters during ac and hvac condensate leak water cleanup to find water beneath visible surfaces. Air movers and dehumidifiers then dry the exposed structure.
A clogged condensate drain or overflowing pan releases water from the air handler. An attic unit can drip through insulation into a ceiling; a closet unit wets wall bottoms. The visible puddle may show only part of the wet area because ceiling drywall, attic insulation, closet flooring, and framing hold hidden moisture.
Water beneath a floor does not disappear when a pipe is fixed. Restoration specialists measure its spread and open trapped areas where needed.
