How Standing Water Pump Out and Flood Water Removal Works in Galena

1. Remove the standing water

   Pumps clear deeper water before extraction tools address the remaining wet floor.

• Stop the water source from a safe dry location if possible.
• Keep children and pets away from any dirty or electrically unsafe water.
• Photograph the wet area and move small dry belongings out of its path.
