Effective Water Removal Tools

Choosing the right extraction and water removal tools for Large Loss scenarios is vital. Our fast response can get mitigation started quickly, and our knowledge to select the right tools can keep your warehouse safer from irreparable harm.

Identifying the Source of the Damage

To begin water removal in Harrisonburg warehouses and production facilities, SERVPRO must identify the source of the disaster. Stopping continued water flow into the work area is critical to managing the mitigative processes.

Truck-Mount Extraction

Powerful extraction is vital to remove surface water surrounding equipment and wares in the building. When several inches of water are in the work areas, SERVPRO turns to the extraction workhorse in our Green Fleet - the truck-mount extractor. This engine-driven pump can effectively move hundreds of gallons of standing water a minute, rapidly managing pressing concerns. Additionally, technicians can run the unit with additional attachments such as:

• Weighted Extraction
• Carpet Wands
• Squeegee Wands

Portable Wet Vacuums

Wet vacuums are the most portable and versatile of all extraction and water removal tools in our inventory. Not only do these units manage standing water independently, but you can also utilize several attachments like carpet wands to improve their focused water removal further. Wet vacuums can be moved easily from one work site to the next, allowing fast and continuous extraction.

Tools for Special Circumstances

We have multiple tools for specific water removal needs, such as weighted extractors and carpet wands for wet carpeted floors. Similarly, drying mats can be effective to use on wood and vinyl flooring installed in the offices of the warehouse. If water remains trapped, it can lead to mold development, so our SERVPRO team works fast to overcome these risks.

Water removal can be a complex service we provide, especially with Large Loss needs. There are several tools related to this process to remove as much water as possible from the warehouse to restore the structure fully.
