How AC Drain Line Overflow Cleanup Works in Polo
If a ceiling is bulging, stay clear of it. The crew can assess the water safely and dry the structure after saturated materials are addressed. Do not enter the room beneath a sagging ceiling.
-
Extract escaped condensate
Water that reached adjacent rooms is removed before drying equipment is set. A moisture map shows where extraction must extend. Extraction reaches wet spots beyond the unit when condensate has moved into a second room.
-
Map the hidden wet area
The crew checks rooms next to the AC source and below attic equipment. Photos and readings record the initial footprint. The map records dry comparison areas as well as affected surfaces for later checks.
-
Address soaked materials
If a wall cavity remains damp, an opening can allow drying air to reach it. The material condition guides removal. A damp cavity may need airflow after damaged wall board is opened in the affected section.
-
Dry and check progress
After extraction and material removal, the crew tracks framing and subfloor moisture. Rebuild is considered when drying is complete. Framing and subfloor measurements help decide when the structure can move to rebuild.
