Pooling beneath an air handler cabinet needs access before drying begins. The crew extracts reachable water and checks neighboring flooring.

-
Remove material that holds water

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
ACS figures place roughly 11% of local housing units in construction from 2000 onward. A new house can still have an overflowing AC pan. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Centerville was built in the 1940s. Prior renovations may place a modern air handler beside older framing. The crew follows water rather than assuming a typical assembly.
Cold weather does not prevent an old AC stain from hiding damp material. Moisture readings test the condition found. For owner occupied homes, policy questions go to the insurer. Coverage depends on the policy, so check with your own insurer.
