1. Remove accessible water

   A pump or extraction tool removes the liquid that a towel cannot reach. The Ames crew starts with the wettest accessible areas.

3. Open trapped-water areas

   Swollen composite parts sometimes cannot be saved by airflow alone. The technician identifies removal needs in the Ames kitchen.
