How HVAC Leak Water Damage Works in Salem

Water under trim can spread laterally while the air conditioner keeps running. Shut the unit off safely and start extraction.

1. Extract the escaped water

   An attic overflow may drip into a room below. The crew captures surface water before evaluating the ceiling material.

2. Map the wet boundary

   A closet wall can absorb condensate on its hidden side. The crew checks both faces when access allows.

3. Remove material that holds water

   A damp carpet pad may need to come out before the subfloor can dry. The technician evaluates contamination and saturation.

4. Dry and verify materials

   The technician records progress during the dry out. Those notes describe the work for the homeowner and an insurance claim.
