How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Sherman Oaks

2. Map wet materials

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

3. Open trapped areas

   Insulation holding sprinkler water may need removal before framing can dry.

4. Dry and verify

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