How Water Heater Flood Cleanup Works in Mode
A musty smell a few days after a flood means moisture stayed somewhere. Moisture mapping finds those spots in a Mode home before they grow into a bigger problem.
-
Extract the standing water
A pump or truck-mounted unit pulls the deep water first. Wands then lift what is left from carpet, pad and low spots.
-
Map the moisture
The map becomes the drying plan and the baseline for every daily reading. It also goes into the claim records.
-
Open what holds water
Wet cabinet kicks and trim may need to come off so the cavity behind them can dry. The crew opens only what the readings call for.
-
Dry and verify
The crew watches temperature and humidity along with moisture content. Those numbers show whether drying is on track.
