Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
In the 1 ZIP code associated with Sullivan, the typical housing construction period is 1970s. Moisture readings matter more than the build date. The building age alone cannot show which AC parts are present. Technicians inspect the current equipment and wet materials.
Attic insulation can hold condensate during the first warm spell. A crew checks the ceiling cavity, not just the paint. If the AC has leaked into flooring, an owner can photograph the initial condition before extraction. The crew then records moisture.
