How Well Pressure Tank Burst Cleanup Works in Afton

1. Extract standing water

   Floor-edge extraction lowers the moisture load for the following dry-out.

2. Map damp materials

   Measurements lead the crew beyond the first visible puddle.

3. Open trapped layers

   Soaked trim may come off when water remains behind it.

4. Dry and verify

   Final readings record progress from initial saturation to completion.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

A softener overflow can sit under vinyl where room air cannot reach it. The technician checks the concealed layer and opens access when needed.

• Turn off the well pump only if the switch is reachable from a dry, safe place.
• Keep people out of water near pump controls or electrical equipment.
• Call a well technician to isolate and repair the failed equipment.
• Move dry valuables away from the spreading water without crossing a hazard.
• Photograph visible damage from a safe position, then call for extraction.
