How HVAC Leak Water Damage Works in Astor

Standing pan water may carry dirt into porous finishes. The crew assesses water condition before deciding what material can remain.

1. Extract the escaped water

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

2. Map the wet boundary

   Drywall below a mini split may hold water beneath intact paint. Readings help decide whether the cavity needs access.

3. Remove material that holds water

   Soaked insulation may block a ceiling cavity from drying. The crew removes material when its condition calls for it.

4. Dry and verify materials

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