24/7 Emergency
Sewage & Contaminated Water Cleanup in Fontana, CA
Sewage and black-water losses are contained, the materials the water touched are removed and disposed of, hard surfaces are disinfected, and the space is dried to a reading. The affected area is sealed off from the rest of the house. Porous materials the water reached come out and are bagged, with drywall cut to a margin above the visible line; hard surfaces are cleaned and disinfected. The space is then dried and read, and the containment comes down only when cleaning and drying are both finished.

Frequently asked questions
Why do abandoned panels still matter?
Because the holes are still there. Each panel is bolted through the roof and its supply and return pipes pass through as well, and all of those were sealed when the system went in. Nobody has looked at them since it stopped working, and a bypassed system is still a set of penetrations at the top of the roof.
Is there still water in them?
Frequently yes, which is what surprises people. A system that was bypassed at the heater rather than drained still has water standing in the panels and the lines. On a roof that gets this hot, that water has been cycling between very hot and cool for decades inside pipework nobody maintains.
What should happen to one?
Removing it properly, which means draining the system, taking the panels off and making good every penetration. Leaving it is the common choice and it means a re-roof happens around the array rather than under it, which is how old mounts end up buried under a new covering.
