How Water Heater Flood Cleanup Works in Economy

A musty smell a few days after a flood means moisture stayed somewhere. Moisture mapping finds those spots in a Economy home before they grow into a bigger problem.

1. Extract the standing water

   A pump or truck-mounted unit pulls the deep water first. Wands then lift what is left from carpet, pad and low spots.

2. Map the moisture

   If the heater sits in an attic, the scan includes the ceiling and walls below. Water often travels farther down than it looks from above.

3. Open what holds water

   Baseboards come off so wall bottoms can breathe. Small cuts in drywall let air reach wet insulation and studs.

4. Dry and verify

   Final readings and the equipment log go into the job file, and the homeowner gets copies for the claim.
