How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Bridgeport

2. Map wet materials

   A technician compares wet readings with dry reference materials in the same building.

3. Open trapped areas

   Insulation holding sprinkler water may need removal before framing can dry.

4. Dry and verify

   Measured structural drying continues after visible puddles disappear.
