Map where the water went

Dry the structure and verify
The technician returns each day to read the same spots. The equipment stays until the readings sit within 2 to 4 points of a dry reference material.
Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
Around 24% of housing near Devers dates from 2000 or later, the years of PEX tubing and flexible heater connectors. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Devers was built in the 1990s. Drain pans were not always installed with heaters in this period. A tank that leaks without a pan sends its water directly into the framing.
Summer heat in an attic adds stress to a tank and its connections. Winter cold adds the opposite stress. Both wear on the same joints. Owner-occupied homes often have a finished basement or a remodeled utility closet. Those finishes hold water in layers, which the technician checks one at a time.
