What Accidental Fire Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Includes in Mead
The fire sprinkler contractor inspects the system after accidental fire sprinkler discharge cleanup. Once the area is safe, a Mead restoration crew removes water and records the affected spaces.
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.
