What Fire Sprinkler Head Leak Cleanup Includes in Happy Jack
When fire sprinkler head leak cleanup sends water across a floor, extraction comes first. A Happy Jack technician then measures adjacent walls and flooring to find moisture the surface does not show.
A drip from a fire sprinkler head can look minor on the floor while ceiling materials slowly absorb water. Moisture may collect around the head opening, move across a ceiling plane and run down a nearby wall. A stain or warped trim can appear after the leak has spread.
The sprinkler trade documents why the system released water. The mitigation team records what became wet and how the structure was dried.
