Showers, face-washes, eyewashes, drench hoses, and tempering units are available as standard or optional equipment that can be housed in these booths. The level of protection desired for the user or the surrounding environment might cause you to consider an enclosure with a self-closing door, privacy curtain, or accordion door. Graphics and signage should also be included on the sidewalls of these utility buildings when the requirements do not ask for it to be fully recessed into a wall system. In outdoor applications, attention to corrosive elements in the air and UV protection are a concern. You might want to require that the outdoor booth chosen is weather resistant and insulated.
Insulated booths are currently available with R values that range between nine and eleven.
Again, the choice of emergency outdoor enclosures can include any combination of showers, eyewashes, face-washes, drench hoses, or tempering units. Consideration must be given to any freeze protection of the equipment that may be desired. Freeze protection can be accomplished through heat tracing, freeze bleed valves, or interior space heaters. Any of the three are available and can be specified. Enclosure options Enclosures come in a variety of shapes and sizes, but most are between 3 ft. by 3 ft. and 4 ft. by 5 ft. in overall width and depth, and exhibit heights between 88 and 102 in.
