What Fire Sprinkler Head Leak Cleanup Includes in Canyon
When fire sprinkler head leak cleanup sends water across a floor, extraction comes first. A Canyon technician then measures adjacent walls and flooring to find moisture the surface does not show.
A drip from a fire sprinkler head can look minor on the floor while ceiling materials slowly absorb water. Moisture may collect around the head opening, move across a ceiling plane and run down a nearby wall. A stain or warped trim can appear after the leak has spread.
Do not disable building protection to start cleanup. Authorized staff handle the system, and restoration technicians begin water removal when entry is safe.
