ChemDry of Park City is Open for Business

ChemDry of Park City is excited to announce that we have purchased the franchise rights to Morgan & Summit Counties from Pynes ChemDry.

Park City, UT, January 18, 2014 - ChemDry of Park City is excited to announce that we have purchased the franchise rights to Morgan & Summit Counties from Pynes ChemDry. Pynes ChemDry has been serving and providing high quality carpet cleaning in Park City and the surrounding areas for over 30 years. And we look forward to continuing that same great care and service.


ChemDry is the nation’s leading carpet and upholstery cleaning franchise system. And is a franchise brand that’s always been committed to environmentally safe products. The commitment exemplified by the company’s patented “green” carbonated cleaning solution, has never wavered. “We like to say that ChemDry was green when green was just a color,” said Dan Tarantin, president and CEO. ChemDry uses all natural, green certified cleaning solutions and patented equipment to clean a wide array of floor surfaces such as rugs, carpet, stone and tile as well as other surfaces including upholstery. Serving both the residential and commercial markets.

ChemDry’s hot carbonating extraction method uses 80% less water than steam cleaning, so it’s better for the environment. And its primary cleaning solution, The Natural, is safe and non-toxic for kids and pets. In contrast, steam cleaning uses soaps and detergents that can leave behind a residue that can trigger allergies and attract dirt, and the excessive water used in steam cleaning creates a breeding ground for mold and mildew.

ChemDry has built a reputation as a trusted, respected brand due to outstanding products, such as its Pet Urine & Odor Removal (PURT) treatment formulated not to merely mask scents but attack the chemical bonds that cause dried urine crystals to cling to surfaces, destroying the source of the stain and smell. ChemDry also uses a range of solutions to clean tile and stone floors, returning them to new condition; has achieved the highest customer satisfaction and customer repeat levels in the industry; and has been Entrepreneur Magazine’s top-rated floor surface cleaning franchise for 25 years in a row.

The Recent Cold Weather Leads To Freeze Damage

Frigid temperature are hard on animals, equipment and yes our indoor plumbing. When temperature fall to single digits for a few days in a row it is common to have some frozen pipes.

Centerville, UT, January 17, 2014 - Frigid temperature are hard on animals, equipment and yes our indoor plumbing. When temperature fall to single digits for a few days in a row it is common to have some frozen pipes. The plumbing that is most vulnerable is in attics, crawl spaces and exterior walls. Even with cold temperatures, it is not predictable when freeze damage will occur. A pipe that freezes in an exterior wall may have been there for many years or even decades, and even survived similar cold temperatures many times before. So what is different this time? Maybe the temperature, maybe the wind direction or velocity? A recent example is a student dorm at Snow College in Ephraim Utah. A fire suppression sprinkler head froze in an interior hallway. the hallway is not heated, but it in the middle of the building. There was a slight gap under the exterior door that allowed a small amount of cold air under the door. Hard to imagine that the air temperature in the hallway would get cold enough to freeze the sprinkler head.


Daryl Olsen of the Flood Co. in northern Utah shares another example, he says: "It was in a newer home in Draper Utah in a West facing wall of a walk out basement. The pipe that froze was protected with 7 inches of blown in fiberglass insulation. There had been some strong winds with the cold temperatures. It was curious that a pipe that was so well protected and insulated could freeze."

Although many freeze events cannot be predicted, here are a few suggestions to help prevent freeze damage:

Insulate any plumbing in an attic or crawl space

Keep the heat on in the property

Open cabinet doors and access doors to allow warmer air to the plumbing connections.

Disconnect hoses from any outdoor faucets

Freeze damage can not always be predicted or prevented. If it does happen, get help to make sure your have identified all of the dampness and are able to dry everything quickly enough to avoid greater damage.

Should you find yourself with water damage, don't try to clean it up yourself. Water damage should be taken care of by a professional. Call The Flood Co for your Northern Utah water damage restoration event.
