How Radiator Leak Water Damage Works in Baker

1. Remove the escaped heating water

   The Baker crew extracts standing water before placing dryers. A boiler room floor may need water removed from behind stored items.

2. Trace moisture through nearby materials

   Water from steam piping may travel behind a heater cover. The technician checks concealed edges after the heating system is safe.

3. Open only materials that hold water

   Saturated insulation above a ceiling may need removal so framing can dry. The crew records what was opened and why.

4. Run equipment and verify drying

   Air movers and dehumidifiers dry remaining materials. The technician records daily readings rather than stopping when the surface feels dry.
