How Dishwasher Leak Under Floor Cleanup Works in Diablo

3. Open materials that trap water

• Use a known shutoff only when the route and valve are dry and safe.
• Keep people away from wet outlets and exposed appliance wiring.
• Move small dry items clear of the affected floor without crossing a soft area.
• Photograph visible water and note when the leak became apparent.
