How Water Softener Leak Cleanup Works in Scarville

A softener discharge can enter gypsum through a small gap at the floor and climb the wall base.

Water left inside that finish can keep affecting trim and paint long after the puddle beside the appliance has been removed.

2. Map wet materials

   Water can follow a well line penetration into another space. The assessor tests likely pathways.

3. Open soaked assemblies
