Water in an elevator pit can cause several problems including horrendous smells, electrical issues, corrosion of the equipment, and hazardous conditions.  It will also result in inspection failure.

 Solutions for water intrusion into an elevator pit:

1. Cleaning the pit:  Some customers choose to have the elevator pit cleaned.  We will remove the oil and water from the pit, wash it down and completely shop vacuum.  This will not solve the water intrusion problems but sometimes is the first step to determine the source of the water.
2. Clean and seal the elevator pit to prevent water from intruding.  The floor and all joints in the concrete are coated with hydraulic cement which provides a very hard and strong barrier for water intrusion.  Below-grade waterproof solution is applied to the walls of the pit.  Finally, the floor is coated with epoxy paint as an extra layer of protection. 
3. Install a sump pump to remove water as quickly as possible from the pit.  Hydraulic elevator sump pumps must be equipped with an oil/water detection switch to prevent the discharge of oil into the environment.  There are several solutions for sump pump installations.  Contact us for an evaluation of your needs.
