How HVAC Leak Water Damage Works in Badger

A ceiling cavity can hold condensate beyond the visible stain. Drying equipment and progress readings address the absorbed moisture.

1. Extract the escaped water

   A technician first removes visible liquid from the Badger floor. Recovery tools then work along the edges where condensate collected.

2. Map the wet boundary

   The technician marks affected layers so progress checks return to the same points. That record helps track drying.

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.
