What Accidental Fire Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Includes in Hometown
When accidental fire sprinkler discharge cleanup sends water across a floor, extraction comes first. A Hometown technician then measures adjacent walls and flooring to find moisture the surface does not show.
An impact to a sprinkler head, a system fault or another unintended event can release water into a room without a fire. Water may run under doors, enter wall bases and soak ceiling spaces below the discharge. The visible puddle rarely marks every wet material.
A discharged head may leave water over several levels. The fire protection specialist handles the source; the drying crew works through the wet footprint.
