How HVAC Leak Water Damage Works in Interlochen

-
Extract the escaped water
An attic overflow may drip into a room below. The crew captures surface water before evaluating the ceiling material.
-
Map the wet boundary
Drywall below a mini split may hold water beneath intact paint. Readings help decide whether the cavity needs access.

Remove material that holds water
Porous material that cannot dry safely is taken out before closing the drying phase. Rebuild follows later.
-
Dry and verify materials
Air movers and dehumidifiers support evaporation from wet Interlochen materials. Repeat readings show whether moisture is dropping.
