How Water Line Break Cleanup Works in Pheba

Soil-contaminated water calls for careful material handling. Porous materials that cannot be cleaned may need removal before drying continues.

1. Pump and extract the water

   A technician removes pooled water from the lowest affected room. Extraction follows the path into adjacent space. Water that crossed a threshold may need a second extraction pass.

2. Map moisture beyond the puddle

   Lower wall cavities are examined where water climbed. Recorded values mark the drying targets. Different materials call for different measurement methods.

3. Remove materials that hold dirty water

   Insulation in a flooded crawl space may stay saturated. Removing affected sections allows joists to dry. Drying the wood below may require access beyond the visible opening.

4. Dry and confirm with readings

   The crew compares current moisture with unaffected material. Drying ends after the affected layers reach the goal. The record explains why a surface was considered dry.
