There have been significant technological advancements in the restoration industry over the years. SERVPRO Disaster Recovery Team - Team Wall takes advantage of these advancements through our utilization of various advanced technologies. This blog will investigate 3 of our team’s favorite advanced technologies used to facilitate the moisture detection, drying, and sanitation processes. Let’s take a look at infrared cameras, air movers and dehumidifiers, and OSHA-approved cleaning agents: 

Moisture Detection and Measurement: Infrared Cameras

In a water damage emergency, the first step is to detect, measure, and monitor moisture levels in the affected area(s). Advanced technologies, such as infrared cameras, can help make this process faster, saving you from additional water damage, as they identify the locations of moisture inside of flooring, ceilings, and walls that must be extracted. In addition to infrared cameras, devices such as hygrometers and sensitive motor detectors measure the saturation of the moisture. 

Drying: Air Movers & Dehumidifiers

Immediately upon extraction of the moisture, affected areas must be thoroughly dried in order to prevent further damage. To facilitate this process, our team utilizes industrial strength air movers, which work to quickly evaporate moisture, as well as powerful dehumidifiers, which extract water vapor lingering in the air. Together, air movers and dehumidifiers protect your home or business’ flooring, walls, and furniture from warping and swelling. 

Sanitization: OSHA-Approved Cleaning Agents

Affected surfaces should be cleaned and sanitized after the drying process is complete in an effort to completely eliminate odors and contaminants that could lead to issues in the future. The cleaning agents used by our crews are approved by OSHA, the Occupational Health and Safety Administration. We utilize two different types of cleaning agents: disinfection and deodorization. Disinfection cleaning agents work to prevent the growth of dangerous microorganisms, including mildew, fungi, and other types of bacteria. Odors that result from excess moisture are combated with the help of deodorization agents.
