How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Post Mills

2. Map wet materials

   A room by room moisture map directs equipment toward the true wet footprint.

3. Open trapped areas

   The crew removes unsalvageable porous materials and records why they came out.

4. Dry and verify

   A dry reference helps confirm when affected materials are ready for later finishes.
