How Refrigerator and Ice Maker Leak Water Cleanup Works in Almena

1. Remove standing water

   A technician works from the wettest section toward unaffected rooms to contain the spread of water.

2. Find absorbed moisture

   A thermal camera can point toward cooler damp areas, which technicians confirm with direct readings.

3. Remove what cannot stay

   Swollen drywall that has lost strength may need a controlled cut to expose framing.

4. Dry and verify

   Daily readings show whether equipment placement should change as the loss dries.

• Close the refrigerator water supply valve.
• Keep clear of wet outlets behind the refrigerator.
• Move valuables away if safe.
• Photograph the source and damaged belongings.
• Avoid wet electrical fixtures and contaminated water.
