The CodeBlue Culture
CodeBlue is headquartered in
Springfield, Ohio, USA, with two
additional offices in Hudson, Ohio, and
Eau Claire, Wisconsin. Much like the
company itself, CodeBlue’s
headquarters in Springfield, Ohio, is a
blend of history and innovation.
CodeBlue is located in the historic 1893
Bushnell Building, where the Wright
brothers patented their design for the
airplane. The building renovations since
its erection have achieved Platinum
LEED (leadership in energy &
environmental design) Certification by
the U.S. Green Building Council
(USGBC).
The CodeBlue Flood
House Experience
In the CodeBlue flood house,
they train and certify (IICRC S500)
CodeBlue staff, insurance carrier staff,
and contractors to be subject matter
experts on the science of drying. The
Springfield OH, CodeBlue flood house
has been flooded with 1,500 gallons of
water over 200 times since being built
in 2011. “In this live water damage home
environment, we demonstrate and
teach the science of drying with
participants using industry water and
fire mitigation equipment to
understand what is possible using
today’s technology. Participants witness
the ability to dry and restore wet
materials such as carpet, hardwood
flooring, cabinets, trim, and drywall
versus replacing materials. This enables
CodeBlue to return policyholders to
pre-loss condition in the fastest and
least disruptive manner.” CodeBlue has
a 2nd flood house used to train and
certify staff, built in 2007 in Eau Claire,
Wisconsin.
