How Water Softener Leak Cleanup Works in Norton

1. Extract standing water

   Water extraction starts at the lowest safe area of the utility room.

4. Dry and verify

• Call a plumber or softener technician to stop the equipment leak.
• Move dry belongings away from the wet floor when safe to do so.
• Photograph the water path, then call for extraction before it spreads.
