How AC and HVAC Condensate Leak Flood Water Removal Works in Augusta

1. Remove the standing water

   Basement pump-out lowers the water so materials can be assessed.

2. Map the moisture

   Meters show whether subfloors remain wet beyond the visible edge.

3. Open what holds water

   Contaminated porous materials often require careful removal.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers and dehumidifiers work together while readings are repeated.

Air movement alone cannot dry a room with a large pool. Extraction comes first, followed by equipment and repeat moisture checks.

• Turn off the cooling system and avoid a wet ceiling fixture.
• Avoid water near electrical equipment.
• Keep children and pets clear.
• Move small belongings to dry ground if safe.
• Photograph the damage before moving items.
