Document Drying In Your Chicago Library
Water loss incidents that affect your Chicago library can be devastating to its shelves of irreplaceable works. Knowing how to handle situations where substantial water loss events can damage books and publications in your care can prevent the loss of a significant investment made by the county or private collectors. Even an abundance of moisture can compromise novels over a short period, so you need to reach out to professional restoration specialists like ours to get mitigation and recovery solutions started immediately.
One of the ways that our team can help with water cleanup in Chicago libraries is through document and publication recovery. We have advanced drying techniques with our contents department that can happen both on-site or in our nearby SERVPRO facility that can preserve affected books and other works you have stored on the shelves of the library. Freeze drying is often the method most trusted by our professionals for its fast turnaround and impressive results.
This process involves rapidly freezing the moisture-damaged books in the library inside of a chamber. With vacuums, the pressure gets reduced substantially within this area, and heat gets added into the equation. The frozen water can then evaporate without damaging the composition or the cellular integrity of the individual pages of the books or other works removed from the facility.
Our SERVPRO team must also address the saturation of areas like the flooring after a water loss incident in the library to prevent the continued exposure of these books and novels. We have advanced rapid drying solutions that can cover several thousand square feet with the use of multiple units simultaneously.
From plumbing breaches to water heater malfunctions, there are many sources of substantial water loss incidents that could impact your local library. To preserve both the building and its publications, seek out the experience and advanced equipment of our SERVPRO of Marquette Park / West Lawn / Ford City professionals. Give our specialists a call anytime that disaster strikes at (773) 337-3993.
