How HVAC Leak Water Damage Works in Alfred

A dry looking wall face can conceal a wet backside. Moisture mapping helps the technician avoid leaving damp layers closed in.

1. Extract the escaped water

2. Map the wet boundary

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.

   Equipment placement changes when a cavity remains damp. The technician adjusts airflow to reach the affected layer.
