How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Poway

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

2. Map wet materials

   The crew checks ceiling cavities and rooms below to trace the discharge path.

3. Open trapped areas

   A wet carpet pad often needs attention even when the carpet surface feels clear.

4. Dry and verify

   A dry reference helps confirm when affected materials are ready for later finishes.
