How Fire Sprinkler Leak Cleanup Works in Dow City

Multiple levels can be damp after one overhead discharge. Testing lower rooms identifies materials that also need attention.

1. Remove pooled sprinkler water

2. Trace wet material beyond the puddle

   Floor coverings and subfloor receive separate checks after a sprinkler discharge.

3. Open trapped areas when needed

   A wet insulation pocket may require removal rather than surface airflow alone.
