What Mini Split Leak Water Damage Cleanup Includes in Golf
A soggy floor edge can stay wet after the obvious puddle is gone. In Golf, extraction tools remove liquid before controlled drying.
A mini split indoor head sits high on a wall, so a condensate leak can travel far before it reaches the floor. Water may run behind the mounting plate or along the wall face, entering paint seams and trim. The floor puddle alone does not show the full wet area.
An HVAC technician clears a blocked condensate drain in Golf. The water damage crew extracts the overflow and measures flooring that absorbed it.
