The equipment matters just as much as response time for Water Extraction — volume and suction determine how much moisture stays trapped versus how much comes out.
We classify every loss as Category 1, 2, or 3 before extraction begins, then document readings throughout the job.
Our Big Rock, IL truck-mount units pull significantly more water per hour than portable extraction gear.
