What AC Drain Pan Overflow Cleanup Includes in Haven
A soggy floor edge can stay wet after the obvious puddle is gone. In Haven, extraction tools remove liquid before controlled drying.
A drain pan catches condensate only until its outlet fails, the pan cracks or water exceeds its capacity. The overflow can soak the support platform and travel into a ceiling bay. Stopping the unit does not remove the water already held in wood, drywall or insulation.
Turning off the air conditioner can stop fresh condensate from forming. It cannot remove moisture already beneath carpet, so the crew checks those layers.
