How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Rensselaer

A sprinkler head over an occupied room may wet furnishings as well as the structure. Prompt separation of dry contents leaves more space for airflow.

1. Remove standing water

   After the system is controlled, crews extract water from reachable wet areas and protect dry nearby space.

2. Map wet materials

   Moisture meters reveal damp drywall and flooring beyond the obvious sprinkler spray area.

3. Open trapped areas

   Saturated ceiling panels may come out so the space above can dry.

4. Dry and verify

   Measured structural drying continues after visible puddles disappear.
