For Hemet commercial properties

Business Plumbing Emergency Plan

A simple written plan helps a Hemet business protect customers and employees, limit water damage, preserve access information, and make a clearer plumbing request.

Prepare before the leak

Build a one-page response plan

1

Record shutoff locations

Identify the building, suite, fixture, appliance, irrigation, and fire-system controls without confusing one system for another.

2

Assign decision makers

List who may authorize assessment, temporary measures, repair, and after-hours access.

3

Protect critical areas

Note electrical rooms, food areas, customer spaces, inventory, servers, and any operations that water could affect.

4

Keep access current

Maintain gate, key, alarm, suite, roof, utility-room, and landlord contact instructions.

When it happens

Give employees a safe reporting script

Ask the employee to state the exact room or fixture, whether water is clean or contaminated, whether it is still flowing, what safe shutoff was attempted, and what equipment or neighboring suites may be affected.

Do not ask an employee to operate unfamiliar building equipment or enter standing water. When the problem appears to be on the public side of the water or sewer system, use the appropriate utility contact.

Review Hemet city and private-property contact guidance.
