How Frozen Pipe Leak Water Removal Works in Fortescue
Dry-looking trim does not prove the cavity behind it is dry. Repeat readings show whether the drying plan is working.
-
Remove the pooled water
Standing water is drawn off first so it cannot keep feeding porous materials.
-
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
Repeat meter readings show whether affected wood and wallboard are losing moisture.
