Mercury Contamination

Enviro-Vac's expertise in Mercury abatement is well documented. The company has assembled a team of Mercury abatement specialists that utilize state of the art equipment to assist in the complete clean up of any mercury spill. Mercury, left un-abated, can produce mercury vapors that are harmful to your heath.

Mercury is classified as a hazardous substance, and spills should be addressed by professionals. Elemental mercury is found in many common household products and was widely used in pressure gauges and in the regulators of natural gas meters, years ago.

When a pressure gauge exploded Enviro-Vac ™ was contracted to decontaminate the building. Enviro-Vac ™ decontaminated the facility so that the building was safe for occupancy.

Please call us if you suspect you may have a mercury problem. You do not have to see visible mercury to have a potential problem. Traces of mercury vapors, invisible to the naked eye can be measured emitting from mercury contamination, in the billionths or nano-grams per cubic meter.
