How Water Heater Flood Cleanup Works in Max
Mold removal is not part of the crew's work. The job is to remove the water and dry the structure quickly enough that mold never gets started.
-
Extract the standing water
The crew handles recovered water according to what it holds. Clean tank water goes to a proper drain, and anything contaminated is handled differently.
-
Map the moisture
If the heater sits in an attic, the scan includes the ceiling and walls below. Water often travels farther down than it looks from above.
-
Open what holds water
Wet cabinet kicks and trim may need to come off so the cavity behind them can dry. The crew opens only what the readings call for.
-
Dry and verify
Air movers push dry air across wet surfaces, and LGR dehumidifiers pull vapor out of the room. The setup is sized to the wet area.

A heating failure while the family is away can freeze a basement. The heater's connectors are among the first parts to crack. Owner-occupied homes often keep the heater where the owner controls access: the garage, basement or a closet. The owner can clear a path for the crew.
