What To Do Immediately
- Open windows or run fans if it is safe, to begin air circulation
- Call a restoration professional as soon as possible
- Shut off the water source if it is safe to do so
- Check with neighbors or a property manager if the source may affect shared plumbing
- Turn off electricity to affected areas if water is near outlets or panels
What Not To Do
- Do not turn on ceiling fixtures if the ceiling is wet
