How Tankless Water Heater Leak Water Damage Works in Bluejacket
-
Pump out the standing water
In a Bluejacket garage or basement, a drain or sump may carry some of the water away. The crew still extracts what the slab keeps.
-
Map where the water went
Baseline readings come from a dry spot in the same house. Every wet reading gets compared against that baseline.
-
Remove what cannot dry
Wet ceiling drywall below an attic heater can sag with trapped water. The crew drains it by cutting from a safe position before it falls.
-
Dry the structure and verify
Air movers sweep the wet surfaces and LGR dehumidifiers pull the moisture out of the air. Together they dry the structure, not only the surface.

- Turn off the gas valve and the unit's power.
- Put a pan or towel under the drip, and keep away from wet wiring.
- Move items out of the cabinet or off the shelf below.
