How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Elm Grove

A ceiling cavity can hold sprinkler water beyond the visible drip. Technicians check above panels and remove saturated materials that cannot dry safely.

   The crew checks ceiling cavities and rooms below to trace the discharge path.

3. Open trapped areas

   Saturated ceiling panels may come out so the space above can dry.

4. Dry and verify
