What needs assessment

Report whether water came from the tank, a connection, relief discharge, or an unknown point. Stay away from wet electrical components and hot water. Describe the drain pan, door threshold, and any water entering neighboring rooms; these details help establish the likely footprint.

Three points to discuss

  • Heater and connection condition
  • Drain pan overflow route
  • Wet utilities and adjoining spaces

Drying and material decisions

Replacing the heater and drying the building are separate scopes. Ask about moisture beneath flooring, behind closet walls, and near stored belongings. If hot water was involved, condition changes may differ by material. Equipment should not be reenergized simply because the floor was mopped.

Property context

Planning the work in Aurora

For an Aurora release, explain whether water appeared after cold weather, a sump problem, a roof event, or an indoor supply failure. Aurora publishes separate floodplain and neighborhood maps; neither establishes the source of an interior stain. Source history and the location of the first wet area guide the appropriate trade and inspection.

Aurora’s public mapping page provides separate neighborhood and floodplain applications. Use the neighborhood map to identify the area and the property address for floodplain questions. A mapped district does not establish the condition inside a building; restoration needs the actual source, water route, and affected assemblies.

No. A pan can overflow, fail to drain, or miss water released outside its footprint.
