How AC Leak Into Wall Water Removal Works in Armuchee

1. Extract the escaped water

   An attic overflow may drip into a room below. The crew captures surface water before evaluating the ceiling material.

2. Map the wet boundary

   Floor seams and baseboards can conceal an AC overflow path. Moisture mapping shows where the liquid traveled.

3. Remove material that holds water

   Soaked insulation may block a ceiling cavity from drying. The crew removes material when its condition calls for it.

4. Dry and verify materials

   The crew monitors flooring and wall edges instead of relying on a dry appearance. Final measurements establish the condition.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Condensate in insulation can remain after the ceiling stops dripping. A technician checks the cavity instead of relying on the surface stain.

• Turn off the AC from a dry control if safe.
• Leave wet wall switches and receptacles untouched.
• Do not drill into the wall to release water.
• Move dry items away from the baseboard if safe.
• Record where the first stain or puddle appeared.
