Do water leaks at industrial companies pose safety risks during water mitigation in Patchogue?
The potential for chemicals mixing with water from a leak in Patchogue companies with warehouses, manufacturing, or processing plants is high. Leaking water can dissolve various chemical substances, which can irritate the skin and harm respiratory systems.
SERVPRO technicians have encountered many situations while providing water mitigation services to companies in Patchogue. We advise our employees and our customers that they should follow one rule of thumb. After a water leak, if the work environment is unpleasant or causes dizziness, wear a respirator, and protect all skin surfaces.
The following safety gear may be necessary for these situations:
- Splash goggles
- Chemical resistant gloves
- Respirators if vapors from organic materials, solvents, or hydrocarbons are encountered
- Full protective bodysuits
Most water mitigation activities do not require this level of protection. However, various chemicals mixing with water can cause toxic vapors that are harmful to humans and animals. We assess every safety hazard and take the necessary precautions to protect our customers and our employees.
