Firefighter Pride in Epoxy Flooring

So why do they do it? Why do firefighters risk their lives, running into buildings just as everyone else is running out? It starts with a strong desire to serve. But from there, the answers are as diverse as the thousands of men and women on the job. Whatever brings them to their vocation, these everyday heroes deserve our thanks and gratitude!

Understandably firefighter company pride is strong and that extends to the place where they live and work. Company members spend a good part of their busy day in their firehouse bays conducting daily training drills, maintaining their apparatus and equipment, and restocking supplies. So it makes sense that they want their facility’s concrete epoxy floors to be functional, safe and easy to clean.

Luckily, Florock has a broad range of firehouse flooring systems to meet their needs. All are chemically resistant to AFF foam, vehicle fluids and tire stains. And Florock even offers industrial flooring that withstands the occasional firehose end or other equipment being dragged or dropped.

As a family-owned company that’s been manufacturing in the U.S. for over 50 years, Florock stands behind its floor coating products and service. It’s no wonder so many firehouses, just like Chief Nichols at the Fort Gratiot, MI, Fire Department, choose Florock for their apparatus bay epoxy floors.

New Concrete Floor Coating Blog!

Looking for the latest Florock blog? We've moved -- see our new blog space at www.florock.net/blog!  

Are You an Eddie Haskell?

Wally: Hey, Beav’, what’s this stuff all over the floor?! And what’s takin’ you so long? I thought you said you knew how to measure the relative humidity of the floor!

Beaver: Gosh, Wally. I’m doin’ what Eddie Haskell taught me… sealing plastic humidity chambers over cans of desiccant throughout the floor. After moisture gets trapped under here for a couple days, we’ll compare the difference in desiccant weight before and after. By next week, we’ll know if it’s safe to install the Florock epoxy flooring the customer wants. Unless, like Eddie says, we need to test again…

Wally: Man, Beav’, didn’t I tell you to stay away from that guy?! He manages to get me in trouble even when he’s not around. Where’s that Rapid RH kit?

Beaver: Gee, Wally, are you talking about external reusable probes? We tried that on Eddie’s job, but I wouldn’t recommend it. Dragging the test meter cables around a big floor is a mess. Plus, Eddie says the required calibration on those probes is expensive and buying new ones costs even more!

Wally: Look, Beaver, everything you’re talking about is outdated. It figures ol’ Eddie Haskell wouldn’t know about the latest technology! Our crew uses the Rapid RH System to measure moisture before we install concrete floor finishes. You could have had the slab’s relative humidity readings almost immediately -- just ask Lumpy!

Lumpy: Yeah, Beaver. The Rapid RH Smart Sensors are easy to install and a snap to read. We get accurate results 10x faster than other methods! Plus, Rapid RH has the lowest cost per test and allows us to retest the same spot without reinstallation.

Beaver: Gee, guys, with the savings in time and money, no wonder you’ve been outbidding the competition!

Wally: Aww, Beav’, quit goofin’ around and get this tape and plastic off the floor. Maybe you could try to learn something and watch this demonstration video on Wagner’s Rapid RH: http://www.wagnermeters.com/videos.php
