How AC and HVAC Condensate Leak Water Cleanup Works in Auburn Hills

1. Remove standing water

   Carpet and pad need more than surface wiping; a local crew presses extraction tools across the wet area.

2. Find absorbed moisture

   A thermal camera can point toward cooler damp areas, which technicians confirm with direct readings.

3. Remove what cannot stay

   Swollen drywall that has lost strength may need a controlled cut to expose framing.

4. Dry and verify

   Daily readings show whether equipment placement should change as the loss dries.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Stopping the source limits new water, but it does not dry existing saturation. The extraction crew removes liquid water and measures the materials left behind.

• Switch off the cooling system to stop condensate production.
• Turn off cooling if water is near wiring or a sagging ceiling.
• Move valuables away if safe.
• Photograph the source and damaged belongings.
• Avoid wet electrical fixtures and contaminated water.
