Water Damage & Flooding: The Difference Between Gray, Black, and Clean Water?
You can tell a lot about the type of flooding you experience just by how the water looks. Is it basically running clear? Is it black or very dark or just gray? Something to remember when you survey your home or office after water damage is that, as the water gets darker, the situation gets worse.
Clear Water
As far as floods go, clear water is fairly benign. It still demands immediate action. If the water appears relatively clean it’s usually from rain or burst pipes. While this water is typically clean of contaminants, it can still do plenty of structural damage, as well as provide the necessary conditions to grow mold, fungi, bacteria and the like.
Gray Water
Gray water is a little bit more serious. It usually comes from appliances like dishwashers and washing machines and is known to be tainted. Like any water, if not immediately tended to it can wreak serious damage and be a health risk. With any water event, the nose knows. Try to stay aware of any musty smells as they’re a great indicator if bacteria-ripe conditions.
Black Water
Black water is extremely serious. Any water damage clean up should be handled by the pros at Accutech, but if you have a black water, or what is known as an “unsanitary” flood, the water is contaminated. Black water events are the result of toilet overflows, backed up sewers and floods. Avoid contact and call Accutech immediately.
