How HVAC Leak Water Damage Works in Lowder

Water under trim can spread laterally while the air conditioner keeps running. Shut the unit off safely and start extraction.

1. Extract the escaped water

   Water trapped against trim can keep moving through a room. The crew removes bulk moisture before setting drying equipment.

2. Map the wet boundary

   Meter readings outline which Lowder building materials are still damp. The crew compares the readings with nearby dry surfaces.

3. Remove material that holds water

   Opening a wall base can expose wet framing after an air handler overflow. Access decisions follow the moisture map.

4. Dry and verify materials

   Equipment placement changes when a cavity remains damp. The technician adjusts airflow to reach the affected layer.

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan

Cold weather does not prevent an old AC stain from hiding damp material. Moisture readings test the condition found.
