What Accidental Fire Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Includes in Heiskell
An early response to accidental fire sprinkler discharge cleanup can limit deeper saturation. Technicians in Heiskell place equipment from moisture readings rather than the size of the puddle.
An impact to a sprinkler head, a system fault or another unintended event can release water into a room without a fire. Water may run under doors, enter wall bases and soak ceiling spaces below the discharge. The visible puddle rarely marks every wet material.
A fire sprinkler contractor inspects the head and controls the system after a discharge. The water damage crew removes pooled water and dries wet materials in Heiskell.
