1. Remove accessible water

   Visible water is recovered first, then the technician checks for concealed spread. The Francesville dry-out is based on material readings.

2. Map the wet materials

3. Open trapped-water areas

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers and dehumidifiers draw moisture from exposed materials. Daily readings show the Francesville crew whether drying is progressing.
