these A/C guys were replacin air conditioning unit in my home and using a blow torch to connect the copper an set sprinkler off accidentally an flooded my place, not everywhere tho..... the a/c company is paying for the cleanup, now got these 6-7 loud fans an 2 dehumidifiers airing out baseboards, walls, and carpet in my condo..

crazy day last tuesday, fire dept came, 7 firemen getting water outta there and shutting the sprinkler off, shit... i am pissed off but everything of value to me is okay... 2 restoration guys was here few days ago ripping out baseboards that are wet, puting holes in walls to air out everything.....an i got a big headache now... will be like 3 weeks before everything is back to normal.. thank god i put blanket in front of my bedroom door to save my computer and everything else... it didn't reach my tv in living room, phew... altho it shorted out a cordless phone that the guy replaced!! least i got clean floors now, heh

water pressure soo hard it swelled a door, busted a door frame and blew a lightbulb, glad it works, shit, no more blow torches ever again!!!! sprinkler is right next to the unit, that normal?....no idea!

this is the first time i have been through something of this magnitude! I was watching tv in living room when the sprinkler went off. I was freakin out after that about alotta things, i forget how long it was before the fire dept showed up cuz i was soo freakin out, hell..

now its just sit and wait until everything gets fixed...
 
Ugh, what a mess! :( At least they will be taking care of it for you, but it's still a bummer to deal with. Glad that your important stuff is all right!
 
I've often wondered what it would be like if those fire sprinklers were to just go off. Now I can imagine, hearing your encounter Jesse. I hope it all gets dried up and straightened up along with some kind of compensation and soon. Poor you. I think I'd go a bit insane if that happened to me!
 
It's dry in here now. As of yesterday afternoon, all of the fans and dehumidifiers are out of my place now and i can finally hear myself breathe :)
