How HVAC Leak Water Damage Works in Clayhole

The first day matters when flooring absorbs AC water. Photos and moisture readings establish where the work should focus.

1. Extract the escaped water

   A technician first removes visible liquid from the Clayhole floor. Recovery tools then work along the edges where condensate collected.

2. Map the wet boundary

   The visible ceiling stain may be smaller than the wet insulation above. A technician checks the broader span before choosing equipment.

3. Remove material that holds water

   Loose ceiling drywall should be assessed from a safe position. Removal may be needed when material is unstable or saturated.

4. Dry and verify materials

   A ceiling below an attic AC unit needs readings across the wet span. Drying is complete when the targeted materials reach an appropriate condition.
