What To Do Immediately

- Turn off electricity to the crawl space if water is near outlets, junction boxes, or the panel
- Check the sump pump (if present) to see whether it is running, clogged, or has lost power
- Note the approximate time the moisture or flooding started, for your insurance claim
- Avoid entering the crawl space until you know the water is not electrically charged
What Not To Do
- Do not walk on wet or soaked crawl space insulation, as it can conceal weakened flooring above
- Do not seal a vapor barrier over ground moisture without addressing the underlying water source first

- Do not run electrical equipment inside a crawl space that still has standing water
