How HVAC Leak Water Damage Works in Pilot

A soaked carpet pad traps more liquid than the carpet surface suggests. The crew removes or dries affected layers according to their condition.

1. Extract the escaped water

   A technician first removes visible liquid from the Pilot floor. Recovery tools then work along the edges where condensate collected.

2. Map the wet boundary

   Meter readings outline which Pilot building materials are still damp. The crew compares the readings with nearby dry surfaces.

3. Remove material that holds water

   Trim can be lifted to reach a wet floor edge. The crew records what was removed for later finish work.

4. Dry and verify materials

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