How Water Heater Flood Cleanup Works in Laupahoehoe

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

1. Extract the standing water

   Hoses and cords stay out of the wet zone and away from the heater, so the pump-out stays safe for everyone in the room.

2. Map the moisture

   Tank water wicks up drywall and runs under baseboards. The scan follows those paths in the heater room and in the rooms next to it.

3. Open what holds water

   Hardwood and laminate may need drying mats or the removal of a few boards, depending on how deep the water went.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers push dry air across wet surfaces, and LGR dehumidifiers pull vapor out of the room. The setup is sized to the wet area.
