How AC Leak Into Wall Water Removal Works in Schurz

1. Extract the escaped water

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

2. Map the wet boundary

   Floor seams and baseboards can conceal an AC overflow path. Moisture mapping shows where the liquid traveled.

3. Remove material that holds water

   Soaked insulation may block a ceiling cavity from drying. The crew removes material when its condition calls for it.

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.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

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

• Turn off the AC from a dry control if safe.
• Leave wet wall switches and receptacles untouched.
• Do not drill into the wall to release water.
• Move dry items away from the baseboard if safe.
• Record where the first stain or puddle appeared.
