How Flood Cleanup Works in Germfask

-
Remove soaked material
The crew opens wet wall areas when access is needed for drying. A technician records the material taken out.

Dry and verify
Air movers and dehumidifiers dry materials that can stay in place. Humidity control supports evaporation from structural materials.
