Follow on Google News | Dry Out Hazards Following a Flood or Water Incursion Discussed in New Online VideoThe IAQ Video Network releases another educational video about indoor air quality (IAQ), industrial hygiene, pathogens or toxins.
A water incursion can create an indoor environment that can be hazardous to building occupants and restoration workers. Depending on the water source, it may contain bacteria, viruses, mold, chemicals, and even protozoa. During the drying process, other contaminates already in the building may also cause a health hazard. Buildings with materials that contain asbestos or lead-based paints may become aerosolized during the drying process as portions of walls, ceilings and flooring may have to be partially removed or even demolished. “Whenever water enters a building, no matter the source, it’s important to have it safely removed as quickly as possible,” reported Paul Cochrane, President of Cochrane and Associates, the company behind the IAQ Video Network and the new public outreach video. “If not conducted properly, the drying process can result in airborne contaminants being spread throughout a property, even into areas not damaged by the water incursion. We hope this video helps to educate people about some of the hazards they may face when drying out a property that has suffered water damage.” To view this video please visit: http://www.youtube.com/ To view past videos about environmental, microbial, and industrial hygiene issues, please visit: http://www.youtube.com/ This educational video was sponsored by a number of organizations and leading industry professionals that help protect the public’s health.
