How HVAC Leak Water Damage Works in Kimberling City

   A technician first removes visible liquid from the Kimberling City floor. Recovery tools then work along the edges where condensate collected.

2. Map the wet boundary

   Meter readings outline which Kimberling City building materials are still damp. The crew compares the readings with nearby dry surfaces.

3. Remove material that holds water
