How Washer Overflow Cleanup Works in Phenix City

A laundry area is warm and humid even on a normal day. That makes a soaked floor there an easy place for growth to begin. The crew runs dehumidifiers to pull the humidity down.

1. Pump out the standing water

   Truck-mounted units handle large volumes, and portable extractors reach into closets and up stairs. The crew picks the machine that fits the doorway and the depth.

2. Map the moisture

   The technician tests cabinet bases, door casings and the baseboard run. Water travels along wall bases, so readings continue past the visible stain.

3. Clean and pull what cannot dry

   Soap film is rinsed from floors and wall bases. Left behind, it stays tacky and holds both dirt and moisture.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers go onto the wet surfaces and LGR dehumidifiers pull water from the air. The crew sizes both to the room's drying class.
