How Refrigerator and Ice Maker Leak Water Extraction Works in Lyndon Station
-
Pull the standing water out
The crew begins with truck-mounted or portable extractors, lifting standing water from carpet, pad and hard floors. Clearing the bulk of it first can take days off the drying that follows.
-
Map the moisture
A dry reading from an unaffected room sets the target. A material counts as dry when it reads close to that number.
-
Open what holds water
Carpet pad acts like a sponge and dries badly where it lies, so it usually comes up first. When the water was clean, the carpet above it can often be saved.
-
Dry and verify
Readings each day track progress against the dry reference. When one area lags, the technician moves or adds a machine.
