How HVAC Leak Water Damage Works in Head Waters
Wet building materials can stay damp behind cabinets or finished walls. A crew opens or removes material when needed for safe drying.
-
Extract the escaped water
Pooling beneath an air handler cabinet needs access before drying begins. The crew extracts reachable water and checks neighboring flooring.

Map the wet boundary
Floor seams and baseboards can conceal an AC overflow path. Moisture mapping shows where the liquid traveled.
-
Remove material that holds water
A damp carpet pad may need to come out before the subfloor can dry. The technician evaluates contamination and saturation.
-
Dry and verify materials
Air movers and dehumidifiers support evaporation from wet Head Waters materials. Repeat readings show whether moisture is dropping.
