How AC Drain Line Overflow Cleanup Works in Westmont

-
Extract escaped condensate
The crew removes standing water before it seeps into more flooring layers. Extraction may include wet carpet or a low spot beneath the air handler. Removing surface water early helps protect carpet backing and nearby trim from another cooling cycle.
-
Map the hidden wet area

Address soaked materials

-
Dry and check progress
A floor may feel dry while the layer below remains damp. Repeat measurements help prevent an early finish to the dry-out. Floor layers are checked again before finish work begins over the affected area.
