How AC Drain Line Overflow Cleanup Works in Citronelle

Extract escaped condensate

-
Map the hidden wet area
Moisture readings follow the path from the AC to ceilings, walls, and floors. The visible stain is only a starting point. A reading above the stain helps determine whether insulation remains wet against ceiling framing.
-
Address soaked materials
A soft ceiling section can need removal after a leak. The crew keeps people clear of unsafe areas and documents what comes out. The opening is limited to material that needs access, while photographs record its condition.
-
Dry and check progress
