Awareness keeps damage to a minimum.

Biohazard Clean Up

The best defense is a good offense. One way to prevent damage is to be able to detect it as soon as it occurs. One way to know is to have moisture sensors in the hot water heater pan. The moment moisture hits the pan, the alarm is sounded. Thereby preventing extended exposure to moisture. Not all materials exposed to water need to be removed, some can be dried in place.
