How Storm Water Removal Works in Copen

Water beneath a floating floor has limited evaporation paths. Opening the assembly may be necessary to address trapped moisture.

1. Establish safe access

   The technician identifies submerged electrical equipment before entering the Copen room. Occupants remain outside the water path.

2. Remove the standing water

   Surface extraction helps limit further absorption. The team checks seams and coverings that retained water.

3. Address contaminated materials

   Outside floodwater is Category 3. The crew identifies porous finishes that cannot be cleaned for safe reuse.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers and dehumidifiers address moisture remaining after extraction. Readings shape equipment placement.
