How Overflowing Toilet Cleanup Works in Otis

Humidity rises when an overflow remains inside closed rooms. Dehumidifiers support drying after liquid water is removed.

1. Assess the water and safe access

   The crew checks electrical exposure before entering the wet bathroom. Water category determines protective handling.

2. Remove pooled liquid

   Contaminated liquid is collected with appropriate protective methods. Remaining surfaces are prepared for cleaning.

3. Map wet construction

   Baseboards and doorway transitions can wick beyond the puddle. A moisture map records the boundaries.

4. Dry and record the result

   Air movers and dehumidifiers target salvageable wet structure. Follow-up readings show drying progress.
