How Accidental Fire Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Edgemont

1. Remove standing water

   A technician documents the standing water and extracts it before setting the drying plan.

2. Map wet materials

   A room by room moisture map directs equipment toward the true wet footprint.

3. Open trapped areas

   Saturated ceiling panels may come out so the space above can dry.

4. Dry and verify

   Final readings show when salvageable surfaces no longer need drying equipment.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

A dry touch is not a dry material reading. The technician compares affected surfaces with dry references before equipment comes out.

• Move people away from wet electrical devices and sagging ceiling areas.
• Have authorized personnel stop the sprinkler flow and check system status.
• Avoid operating damp switches or unplugging devices from standing water.
• Photograph the discharge area and spreading water from a safe position.
• Move small dry belongings out of the water path when safe.
