How HVAC Leak Water Damage Works in Nuiqsut

The first day matters when flooring absorbs AC water. Photos and moisture readings establish where the work should focus.

1. Extract the escaped water

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

2. Map the wet boundary

   A closet wall can absorb condensate on its hidden side. The crew checks both faces when access allows.

3. Remove material that holds water

   A damp carpet pad may need to come out before the subfloor can dry. The technician evaluates contamination and saturation.

4. Dry and verify materials

   After extraction, controlled air movement removes remaining moisture. The crew checks the building before finish work starts.
