Extract the escaped water
Pooling beneath an air handler cabinet needs access before drying begins. The crew extracts reachable water and checks neighboring flooring.

-
Remove material that holds water
Porous material that cannot dry safely is taken out before closing the drying phase. Rebuild follows later.

Dry and verify materials
Air movers and dehumidifiers support evaporation from wet Knippa materials. Repeat readings show whether moisture is dropping.
