How Water Heater Flood Cleanup Works in Dexter

Hot tank water raises humidity in a closed room. That extra moisture settles on cool surfaces, so dehumidifiers matter as much as pumps.

1. Extract the standing water

   The crew handles recovered water according to what it holds. Clean tank water goes to a proper drain, and anything contaminated is handled differently.

2. Map the moisture

   Tank water wicks up drywall and runs under baseboards. The scan follows those paths in the heater room and in the rooms next to it.

3. Open what holds water

   Hardwood and laminate may need drying mats or the removal of a few boards, depending on how deep the water went.

4. Dry and verify

   The crew watches temperature and humidity along with moisture content. Those numbers show whether drying is on track.
