We use cutting-edge wash water recovery techniques to minimize water waste and protect the environment.
Our team at Blackwater Power Washing, LLC, has extensive experience in the power washing business. While using pressurized water to remove dirt and grime from exterior surfaces is an effective technique, it does consume a lot of water, and some people are becoming concerned about this fact. Our experts share your concerns about water consumption, and we have adopted wash water recovery techniques to help conserve as much water as possible.
As the name suggests, wash water recovery is a process of collecting the water used in our pressure washing services so it can be put to other uses. Our team uses vacuums to gather the water into tanks, where it can then be filtered and treated. It is necessary to treat the water before using it for anything else because all the contaminants—such as mold, algae, and even exhaust residue–that washed off the target surface remain in the water. Because the water gets so dirty during the initial power washing process, in many cases, we can’t let it run into storm drains, as it would contaminate the larger water supply. Wash water recovery thus offers an excellent way to protect the environment on multiple fronts, first by conserving water and second by preventing water pollution.
Our team is proud to serve Southwest Virginia, and we want to help you take care of your property and of the larger environment. If you want to learn more about our wash water recovery techniques, just give us a call.
