How Water Heater Flood Cleanup Works in Chalkyitsik

Mold can grow behind baseboards and inside wall cavities where no one can see it. That is why the crew trusts a moisture meter and a thermal camera over the surface.

1. Extract the standing water

   The operator checks depth, sets the intake and runs hoses to a proper discharge point. The goal is to get the bulk of the tank water out of the building first.

2. Map the moisture

   Pin and pinless meters check different depths. The crew uses both on flooring, framing and drywall, then sketches the results.

3. Open what holds water

   Opening a wall sounds drastic, but a wet cavity that stays closed holds water for days. The crew makes the smallest opening that does the job.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers push dry air across wet surfaces, and LGR dehumidifiers pull vapor out of the room. The setup is sized to the wet area.
