How Fire Sprinkler Leak Cleanup Works in Lerna

A slow sprinkler head leak may be discovered after finishes have absorbed water. Moisture readings show the extent that a stain cannot reveal.

1. Remove pooled sprinkler water

   Crews recover shallow pools and check whether lower rooms collected water from an overhead release.

2. Trace wet material beyond the puddle

   The technician tests ceiling edges, wall bases and lower rooms for water movement.

3. Open trapped areas when needed

   The team exposes retained moisture where measurements show the assembly is not improving.

4. Verify the dry condition

   Final measurements document the condition before later finish work begins.
