How Frozen Pipe Water Damage Works in Shonto

Dehumidifiers pull moisture from the air while air movers help wet surfaces release it. The crew tracks readings as drying progresses.

1. Remove accessible standing water

   The crew extracts pooled water from the Shonto room before it reaches more flooring.

2. Trace moisture through materials

   Adjacent rooms are assessed when water has crossed a doorway or cavity.

3. Expose saturated hidden layers

   When wall material traps water, a controlled opening can make drying possible.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   A drying plan changes when readings reveal a pocket of trapped water.
