Commercial Shut Offs

Utility shut offs

We cannot stress this enough. How important it is to know where are all you main shut off. Now where the main water shut off. As well as the electricity, and gas if the commercial building has gas.

I’ve been to many commercial buildings where the persons in charge did not know where the main shut offs. That is a bit concerning for several reasons.

Let say that for whatever reason the building needs emergency repairs and need the main shut off turned off. How will you do it quickly. Or let’s say one of the supply lines broke and a huge amount of water is flooding the building, how will you turn it off as quickly as possible. Now there is water touching electrical lines and need to turn off electricity NOW. Are you able to do that when you don’t even where the shut off are? No.

There is a service that SERVPRO of Bellflower offer that is very beneficial to any commercial building. This service is called ERP (Emergency Ready Profile). Read “How is an ERP beneficial to my Business?”
