Commercial Water Damage Fitchburg – Malfunctioning Fire Sprinkler
Although it is infrequent for commercial fire sprinklers to malfunction, however when sprinklers do fail, water can damage the contents of your building. Malfunctioning water sprinklers are generally caused by overheating, freezing, corrosion, mechanical damage, and human sabotage or errors. Older systems tend to have more corrosion and are also subject to damage from employees hanging things on the pipes or accidentally knocking the sprinkler heads.
SERVPRO can respond to commercial water damage situations quickly in Fitchburg and surrounding areas. We understand how important it is to avoid downtime for your business to avoid production losses, sales, and revenue declines. We respond in less than four hours from the time of your call on a 24 / 7 basis.
Water Damage from Sprinkler Systems
Fire suppression sprinkler systems do not malfunction very often; however, when a sprinkler head does begin spraying water in a specific area, it can quickly soak an area. Water can spread across floors, into walls, under equipment that may be very difficult to move.
SERVPRO has a variety of wall cavity ventilating systems that include air movers and blowers with attached hoses to utilize for every drying challenge. We can direct air under cabinets and equipment too heavy or awkward to move. Many commercial buildings contain structural cavities that need to be dried to avoid high moisture conditions that can lead to mold infestations after water damage. Hoses can be directed into these areas pushing dry air into the cavity and absorbing the moisture.
On occasion, we may have to drill small holes to gain access to these cavities or under cabinets. SERVPRO can attach the appropriate drying equipment in these situations to return humidity levels to normal levels. We also use heavy-duty venting fans that move vast volumes of air to clear large areas of moisture and odors.
