How HVAC Leak Water Damage Works in Carrabelle

Water under trim can spread laterally while the air conditioner keeps running. Shut the unit off safely and start extraction.

1. Extract the escaped water

   A mini split drip may run down a wall to the floor. The technician removes collected water at the wall base.

2. Map the wet boundary

   Meter readings outline which Carrabelle building materials are still damp. The crew compares the readings with nearby dry surfaces.
