Did your Business Suffer due to a Boil Water Advisory?

Business owners face the inconvenience of having to find water sources when a Boil Water Advisory is put in place. Most have to close operations for the time being as boiling water in order to kill microorganisms such as e-coli, protozoa, bacteria, and viruses is just not a viable solution when water is in every aspect of, for example, a restaurant’s operations. Being placed in this predicament put businesses in the position to lose revenue and potentially close its doors permanently.

Receive Insurance Funds for Recovering your Business from a Boil Water Order

Most business owners are not aware that their insurance policy can cover the expenses incurred by this inconvenience. Property insurance companies offer Boil Water Order – Business Income and Expense Coverage whereby the insurance company will:

Boil Water Order

Pay for your loss or costs incurred due to total or complete business interruption as a result of a Boil Water Order issued by the Board of Health, water authority, or any other governmental body.

Income Protection.

Pay for your actual loss of “income” you sustain due to a partial or total “interruption of business” until the “boil water order” is lifted by the Board of Health, water authority or other governmental bodies.

Extra Expense.

Pay for your costs to clean and sanitize your machinery and equipment as directed by the Board of Health, water authority or other governmental bodies.

Restoration Expenses.

Pay for your costs to replace your food and goods declared contaminated by the Board of Health, water authority or other governmental bodies.

Additional Advertising Expenses.

Pay for your extra costs of advertising incurred to restore your reputation including, but not limited to, telephone, radio, television, newspaper, and other media announcements.

Inoculation Expenses.

Reimburse your reasonable expenses for inoculation or other medical expenses incurred by you for infected patrons. The insurance company will also pay your expenses to provide necessary medical tests and vaccines for infected “employees”
