How Bathtub Overflow Cleanup Works in Lemon Grove

Porous trim can wick an overflow above the original puddle. The crew checks the full wet height and dries or removes material based on condition.

3. Open trapped wet materials when needed

   Soaked insulation may block effective drying. The crew removes damaged material and creates access where the assembly requires it.

   Air movers support evaporation while dehumidifiers collect vapor. Daily readings show the Lemon Grove crew whether materials are improving.
