What AC Drain Pan Overflow Cleanup Includes in Landisville
Photos of the initial leak path and drying measurements help record the Landisville loss. The insurer decides coverage under the policy.
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.
The equipment fault needs an HVAC professional; damp drywall needs restoration attention. Arrange both when an air handler has leaked into a finished room.
