Distillery & Brewery Hazardous Location Equipment Service
WERCS provides professional hazardous location equipment service for craft distilleries and breweries. Still rooms, barrel storage, and bottling areas near high-proof spirits all require proper hazardous classification. We service explosion-proof fans, gas detection, ventilation systems, and provide compliance documentation that protects your TTB federal permit.
Problems We Solve
WERCS technicians are experts at diagnosing and fixing paint booth issues that cost you time and money.
Dual Hazard Environment
Distilleries face dual hazards: ethanol vapors (Class I, Group D) AND grain dust (Class II) in the same facility.
Electric Sombrero of Death
Industry term for the danger zone around flammable liquid storage. Improperly classified electrical equipment near stills and tanks creates ignition sources.
TTB Permit at Risk
Your TTB (Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau) federal permit is at risk if safety violations are found.
Built-Out Without Classification
Many craft distilleries built out facilities without proper hazardous area classification. WERCS helps identify gaps and bring equipment into compliance.
