How Refrigerator and Ice Maker Leak Water Cleanup Works in Waverly

1. Remove standing water

   Portable units reach upper rooms where truck mounted equipment cannot be placed close to the loss.

2. Find absorbed moisture

   A thermal camera can point toward cooler damp areas, which technicians confirm with direct readings.

3. Remove what cannot stay

   Opening a trapped assembly gives air a path to the wet material inside.

4. Dry and verify

   Technicians monitor humidity and material moisture, then record the results for the job file.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Drywall absorbs water through its lower edge. Technicians check above the visible mark because moisture may have climbed inside the panel.

• Close the refrigerator water supply valve.
• Keep clear of wet outlets behind the refrigerator.
• Move valuables away if safe.
• Photograph the source and damaged belongings.
• Avoid wet electrical fixtures and contaminated water.
