Water Damage Classification Information
Water damage is defined as any type of structural damage caused by water. There are four categories of water damage that include:
- Class 1. Rate of Evaporation: Slow. The damage affects only a small section of a room and most moisture is absorbed by materials in the room.
- Class 2. Rate of Evaporation: Fast. The damage has affected most of the room and water has been absorbed up the walls to a maximum height of 24 inches.
- Class 3. Rate of Evaporation: Fastest. This damage is typically caused by an overhead source and affects the entire room. This is the most severe type of water damage and will be the most expensive to address.
- Class 4. Special drying circumstances: This category involves damages to flooring, carpeting, and other components that require a very specific type of cleanup.
Understanding Water Damage Categories & Their Levels of Severity
Any type of water intrusion is ranked from 1-3 based on the contamination level of the water. The categories include:
- Clean Water, Category 1: This categorization refers to water that is generally clean and relatively sanitary, such as an overflow of the kitchen sink or rupture in a non-chlorinated swimming pool. This kind of water does not pose a significant health hazard.
- Grey Water, Category 2: This type of contaminated water may contain microorganisms, fungi, and chemicals. This type of water poses a significant health hazard and is unsafe to drink. May cause sickness and or discomfort when consumed.
- Black Water, Category 3: This is the most severe category and typically evolves from stagnant gray water. This type of water is wholly unsanitary, and one should not even stand in it. This kind of water is typically from overflows occurring of underground sewage carriers, rising sea levels, breached treatment levies, and other similar sources. Type three water must always affect indoor environments to be thus classified.
Water damage, if left untreated, may facilitate mold growth. Mold is marked by dark spots on walls and ceilings caused by water that is not extracted and cleaned up. The mold itself can be hazardous to humans and can cause sickness, dizziness, and discomfort. Common symptoms include itchy eyes, chronic coughing, headaches, drowsiness, rashes, and respiratory ailments. Mold also can trigger structural damage to your property in the Utah cities we serve, including Draper, Park City, Salt Lake City, and South Jordan.
