2. Map the wet materials

   The first puddle does not define the damage boundary. In Kenoza Lake, readings reveal where water followed seams and cavities.

3. Open trapped-water areas

   Swollen composite parts sometimes cannot be saved by airflow alone. The technician identifies removal needs in the Kenoza Lake kitchen.

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

• Stop the dishwasher and close an accessible supply valve if the area is safe.
• Keep people out from under bulging or dripping ceiling drywall.
• Avoid wet light switches and fixtures; an electrician handles electrical hazards.
• Move loose belongings away from the drip without standing below a sagging area.
• Photograph the kitchen floor and lower ceiling from safe positions.
