- Stop the water at a safe shutoff if the source is inside.
- Avoid wet outlets and turn off power only from a dry location.
- Photograph carpet before moving affected items.
- Keep children and pets away from standing or dirty water.
- Move dry valuables out of the path without walking through water.
