What Accidental Fire Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Includes in Stopover
When accidental fire sprinkler discharge cleanup sends water across a floor, extraction comes first. A Stopover technician then measures adjacent walls and flooring to find moisture the surface does not show.
An impact to a sprinkler head, a system fault or another unintended event can release water into a room without a fire. Water may run under doors, enter wall bases and soak ceiling spaces below the discharge. The visible puddle rarely marks every wet material.
The sprinkler trade documents why the system released water. The mitigation team records what became wet and how the structure was dried.
