Mitigating HVAC Commercial Water Damage in a Nashua Gift Shop

New Hampshire businesses may have a plan for when water damage occurs but may be overwhelmed by cleanup involved when it affects hard-to-reach areas like wall cavities and ventilation systems. With HVAC systems, it is especially crucial to remove damage quickly, as water can affect nearby structures and allow for mold to develop. Without fast action, the safety of your facilities may be compromised. 

If your Nashua business has commercial water damage in need of rapid mitigation, IICRC-certified SERVPRO professionals are available to remove damage quickly and return your facilities to a preloss condition. Whether your inventory has been affected by water or your structures require repair and replacement, SERVPRO can begin cleanup and repairs within hours of your initial contact. This firm prides itself on being a franchise, so owners, technicians, and staff are all local residents in tune with the needs of the community. 

Checking Your Vents

• Evaluate the materials. Sheet metal, fiberglass, and flexible aluminum are all able to transport air effectively around a facility. 
• Insulate your ducts. Insulated ventilation is efficient because it can better retain its temperature. Acoustical lining can also reduce air sounds in your building's ductwork. 
• Monitor the supply and return registers. Keep these unobstructed at all times to maintain optimal airflow. 
• Seal leaks fast. Notice any loose connections, gaps in seams, or kinks in flexible ducts? Duct mastic and similar approved materials can go a long way toward maintaining your ducts until more permanent repairs can be made. 
• Inspect the duct supports. Supports for your ducts should be no more than 10 feet away from each other. If there are any loose supports, have a professional repair them as soon as possible. 

SERVPRO's Cleanup Process

In commercial facilities, ventilation systems can pose unique challenges because they are often located in touch-to-reach areas. However, SERVPRO technicians have the tools and techniques needed to evaluate the condition of your ductwork and dry it thoroughly. If your ducts are made of sheet metal, they can be wiped down with OSHA-approved cleaners. If your HVAC system has a fiberglass lining, technicians can check for mold growth and remove contaminated insulation quickly. If nearby ceiling tiles are affected, they can be removed and replaced as well.
