Weighted Extractor Water Removal In Reading Homes

When it comes to water and moisture removal for Reading properties, one piece of equipment cannot handle all of the jobs necessary to fully restore affected homes. While our technicians often lean heavily on the use of air movers and our desiccant dehumidifiers for moderately sized water loss incidents, other specialized tools and machines can have a substantial role in returning a residence to preloss condition after considerable water damage.

We know the importance of arriving with all of the necessary equipment and personnel to get started on water removal immediately in your Reading residence. Mitigation is a vital step to protecting your property against costlier restoration and recovery options, and the longer that damages persist, the more widespread and devastating they can become. With carpet being a staple flooring option for most modern homes throughout the area, and the magnetism of this material for damages and saturation, it is not surprising that our SERVPRO team has specific equipment designed to address this saturation.

Weighted extractors are a unique addition to our recovery tool inventory and can work quickly to help preserve and protect carpeting when possible. These units are often remote-controlled and feature a heavyweight roller that can maneuver through damaged carpeted areas. This machine and its density work to force moisture and saturation to the surface, where it can get collected by the high-powered onboard vacuum system.

One of the advantages of a weighted extractor is the depth that these machines can often reach. Other drying methods can often only affect the fibers of carpet and to the base of this material, but not affect subflooring and padding. This extractor approach can remove considerable volumes of this saturation and prepare your carpets for a procedure known as floating by our high-velocity air movers.

We have a steadily growing inventory of recovery equipment designed to make restoration and mitigation as efficient and cost-effective as it can be. You can count on our SERVPRO of Reading professionals to utilize this equipment to reduce restoration times and keep our work under budget. Give us a call anytime at (610) 779-8189.
