When your property has
become the victim to water damage, you may be worried that everything
has been damaged beyond repair, but that is not always the case. In a
large percentage of the cases of water or flood damage a lot of
remedial work can be undertook in order to eradicate the property of
all of the water.
The first main item
of equipment that is essential in any water restoration project is a
flood water pump. This item is crucial and a must have if you need to
remove large amounts of water as it is
capable of extracting in excess of 1700 gallons of water every single
hour, which is roughly around 30 gallons each and every minute. These
types of pumps come equipped with a basket that is capable of
collecting large items of debris and the sludge as it is collected
during pumping, this can then be disposed of at a later time.
Next up and in order
to avoid mold and mildew growth, the next step is to remove the
excess moisture in the air and this is accomplished by using a
dehumidifier. These machines can extract significant amounts of
moisture from the surrounding atmosphere, although they only work to
maximum efficiency in an enclosed space.
In order to fully remove
the water from the air after a recent flood then you will need carpet
blowing dryers, these pieces of equipment usually have three speeds
and combined with a dehumidifiers, they will soon make short work of
all that extra moisture.
Of course that
waterlogged carpet may not have to be disposed of, and it maybe
salvageable with the use of a water extraction vacuum cleaner. These
extract the last remaining drops of water whilst at the same time
giving the carpet a deep cleaning, ready to be dried by the use of a
carpet drying machine and restored back to its former glory.
