How Ice Maker Leak Cleanup Works in Potosi

Dehumidifiers remove airborne moisture after extraction. The crew tracks the remaining wet materials with repeat readings. Equipment settings change as the readings show improvement.

1. Stop the source safely

   A loose ice maker fitting needs correction before drying can hold. The technician first identifies the affected rooms. The crew notes whether the drip has stopped before planning equipment.

2. Extract reachable water

   A cabinet base may hold water behind its front panel. The crew checks for access before drying it. A wet base can hide liquid behind a removable front panel.

3. Map concealed moisture

   Floor joints can hide damp material after the puddle disappears. The Potosi technician tests nearby layers. A reading at the wall base helps define the boundary of the loss.

4. Dry and verify

   Wet material that cannot dry in place may be removed. The remaining assembly receives controlled airflow. Open cavities receive readings before they are closed again.
