How HVAC Leak Water Damage Works in Hardaway

A soaked carpet pad traps more liquid than the carpet surface suggests. The crew removes or dries affected layers according to their condition.

1. Extract the escaped water

   A technician first removes visible liquid from the Hardaway floor. Recovery tools then work along the edges where condensate collected.

2. Map the wet boundary

   Meter readings outline which Hardaway building materials are still damp. The crew compares the readings with nearby dry surfaces.

3. Remove material that holds water

   Opening a wall base can expose wet framing after an air handler overflow. Access decisions follow the moisture map.

4. Dry and verify materials

   The crew monitors flooring and wall edges instead of relying on a dry appearance. Final measurements establish the condition.
