Commercial Water Loss at University in Cambridge, MA

1/18/2022 (Permalink)

159 air movers were deployed to dry 3 floors of office space

‘Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house

Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse….

And then a water pipe burst, giving 3 floors a douse.

That’s right, on Christmas Eve our franchise responded to a water emergency at an administrative building for a prestigious university in Cambridge, MA. A water line, about six inches in diameter, carrying hot water for heating finally gave out. Upon inspection the line was severely rusted and corroded, it was only a matter of time before it popped open releasing an immense amount of water. The water flooded the 3rd floor of the building and the two floors below it. Our crews responded immediately, delivering 159 fans, 14 dehumidifiers, air filtration devices, and hydroxyl generators to the property. Our team returned on Christmas day to monitor the equipment and the progress of drying. The day after Christmas our technicians thoroughly cleaned everything including steam cleaning the carpets and applying antimicrobial to prevent mold growth. I share this story to let you know about our capacity to handle any size commercial job and that our crews are standing by 24/7/365 to respond. While I sincerely hope something like this does not happen to your property, if it does, call the pros to handle it.
