How Fire Sprinkler Leak Cleanup Works in Andalusia

2. Trace wet material beyond the puddle

   A warm-looking image alone does not prove a cavity is dry; physical measurement matters.

3. Open trapped areas when needed

   Soaked ceiling materials may need controlled removal to give a cavity drying access.

4. Verify the dry condition

   Progress checks show whether each affected surface is moving toward the target.
