How Washer Overflow Cleanup Works in Burke

Soapy residue left on a floor holds moisture and dirt. The crew rinses and extracts again so the surface can dry instead of staying tacky and damp.

1. Pump out the standing water

   The operator keeps hoses off stair edges and out of walkways. Cords stay up off the wet floor, and equipment runs from a protected outlet.

2. Map the moisture

   Readings are taken in a grid, not in one spot. A grid shows the edge of the wet zone and gives later visits the same places to compare.

3. Clean and pull what cannot dry

   Soap film is rinsed from floors and wall bases. Left behind, it stays tacky and holds both dirt and moisture.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers go onto the wet surfaces and LGR dehumidifiers pull water from the air. The crew sizes both to the room's drying class.
