• Keep clear of hot water and any wet heating controls.
• Leave the basement if water surrounds outlets or powered equipment.
• Use a safely accessible shutoff only if its location and function are clear.
• Call a heating technician to stop the boiler leak.
• Photograph visible damage from a dry position, then call 24/7 for extraction.
