Class One water loss. Flood loss

Classification of Water. Class 1

The Classification of water- related to the relative degree of saturation. This class is used to calculate the initial amount of equipment needed in the drying process.

Least amount of water, absorption, and evaporation. Water losses that affect only part of a room or area , or larger  areas containing materials that have absorbed minimal moisture. Little or no wet carpet and/or cushion is present. These may also include small losses where the carpet and cushion has been removed and only the sub-floor is being dried.

This class may include more than one room or drying chamber, but is typically a small amount of water left after extraction and removal of wet materials. A number of rooms with each room having only a slight involvement in the loss may also be labeled as a class 1 loss.
