Remove the pooled water
A pump clears deeper accumulation before smaller extraction tools reach the film left behind.
-
Trace damp materials
Insulation and trim are evaluated where thaw water followed a hidden route.
-
Expose trapped moisture
Saturated insulation may be removed when it blocks drying of the cavity.
-
Verify the dry-out
The crew records the progression and adjusts equipment when a layer dries slowly.
