Do Genoa crews inspect rooms below a leak?
They follow the likely water path. A release upstairs often warrants checks in lower rooms even with limited staining.
Can carpet be dried after a sprinkler discharge?
Condition, backing, cushion and water category govern the decision. The crew checks each layer rather than assuming the top surface tells the story.
Can cleanup start before system work is finished?
The crew can assess and plan safe mitigation while the sprinkler contractor handles the system. Active flow and hazards must be controlled.
Does cleanup include sprinkler head work?
No. A fire sprinkler contractor handles the protected system. The restoration crew extracts water and dries materials.
Can a sprinkler head drip create major damage?
A slow drip can saturate overhead material before a visible stain grows. The technician measures the actual wet area.
