How Fire Sprinkler Leak Cleanup Works in Sims

A slow sprinkler head leak may be discovered after finishes have absorbed water. Moisture readings show the extent that a stain cannot reveal.

2. Trace wet material beyond the puddle

   Moisture meters reveal damp gypsum and flooring that a visual check may miss.

3. Open trapped areas when needed

   Materials that cannot be dried appropriately are documented before removal.

4. Verify the dry condition

   Final measurements document the condition before later finish work begins.
