There is a range of risks associated with cleaning confined spaces.
According to Haspod, there are 7 main dangers to be aware of. These include:
Lack of oxygen
Lack of oxygen is a major concern for teams dealing with confined spaces. As a result of naturally occurring chemical reactions, such as certain soils reacting with oxygen or chalk or limestone producing carbon dioxide which displaces oxygen, the oxygen level may fall dangerously low. A study by the Marine Accident Investigation Branch found that oxygen levels can fall as low as 5%.
Gases, fumes and vapours
Confined spaces will likely lack ventilation. Ventilation allows for fresh, clean air to circulate the area. Without it, poisonous gases or fumes may accumulate, causing a toxic environment.
Flooding
Confined spaces such as sewers are prone to flooding, posing a serious threat to those working in the space. From being trapped in the confined space due to collapsed walls or blocked exits to potentially drowning, the risks are rather extreme. If a flood occurs, timing is everything. Flood water can take over a confined space in a matter of seconds, so it’s important to create a plan of action in case a flood should arise.
Dust
It’s possible that the work being carried out will create a large amount of dust, for example, through drilling or grinding. Though the build-up of dust may not seem as severe as flooding, it should not be underestimated. The main dangers associated with dust are respiratory issues and an increased risk of fire or explosions.
Fire and explosions
Whilst lack of oxygen is bad, too much oxygen may also cause problems. Excess levels of oxygen increase the risk of fires or explosions taking place, particularly in confined spaces containing flammable vapours, liquids, gases or dust.
Temperature
Confined spaces often trap heat, particularly those without proper ventilation, which can lead to a dangerous increase in body temperature. If the temperature of the confined space is excessively high, it’s important to be aware of the early signs of heatstroke and exhaustion.
Access restrictions
Confined spaces can be difficult to enter and exit. It’s crucial that an escape plan has been established in the event of an emergency evacuation where restricted access is an issue.
