Restoration Equipment Rental Safety
Basic considerations before using air movers, dehumidifiers or other restoration equipment.
- Confirm electrical capacity and safe placement.
- Do not use equipment in contaminated or unsafe conditions without guidance.
- Keep cords and air paths clear of occupants.
- Understand monitoring, drainage and maintenance requirements.
- Rental equipment does not replace professional assessment when materials or cavities may remain wet.
When to call for help
Contact a restoration professional when damage is active, utilities may be unsafe, contamination is possible, materials remain wet, mould is visible or the affected area is larger than a simple surface cleanup.
General information only: This guide does not replace emergency-service instructions, an on-site assessment, insurer advice or professional electrical, structural, environmental or legal advice.
