How Water Line Break Cleanup Works in Efland

Moisture can migrate through trim and into wall cavities. Meter readings identify places where drying needs to continue.

1. Pump and extract the water

   A technician removes pooled water from the lowest affected room. Extraction follows the path into adjacent space. Water that crossed a threshold may need a second extraction pass.

2. Map moisture beyond the puddle

   The crew measures framing near the water entry point. Nearby dry materials provide comparison readings. The assessor records each value so progress can be checked later.

3. Remove materials that hold dirty water

   A cabinet toe kick can block airflow to a wet cavity. Selective opening may be needed for access. The technician checks the newly exposed area before choosing equipment.

4. Dry and confirm with readings

   Daily measurements reveal slow areas. Equipment can be shifted toward the last wet section. A technician checks the slowest material before removing equipment.
