How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Cashiers

A ceiling cavity can hold sprinkler water beyond the visible drip. Technicians check above panels and remove saturated materials that cannot dry safely.

1. Remove standing water

   Water removal targets low spots first, including thresholds where flow has collected.

2. Map wet materials

   Testing wall bases and subfloors shows where surface mopping failed to reach.

3. Open trapped areas

   When water sits behind trim, selective opening gives moisture an escape path.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers and dehumidifiers run until daily readings reach the drying target.
