What Fire Sprinkler Head Leak Cleanup Includes in Ira
The fire sprinkler contractor inspects the system after fire sprinkler head leak cleanup. Once the area is safe, a Ira restoration crew removes water and records the affected spaces.
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.
Wet ceiling panels can continue dripping after a sprinkler valve closes. The cleanup team checks overhead spaces while the sprinkler contractor restores protection.
