Tips for a Fresh Home

A survey commissioned by the IICRC indicates that 81 percent of U.S. homeowners agree that the health of their family is directly related to the cleanliness of floors in the home. While a key component to improving air quality is eliminating carpet and rug odors, which in many cases requires regularly cleaning these surfaces, only 15 percent clean their carpet at least once a year.

According to the IICRC, the following four-step process is the best way to successfully remove odor from your carpet:

*Remove the source of the odor, as practical (absorb liquids, scoop solids)
*Thoroughly clean odor-affected surfaces and materials. (Cleaning is essential to deodorizing)
*Treat the odor source with an appropriate odor counter-actant (sanitizer, disinfectant, enzyme)
*Seal restorable surfaces, such as subflooring, if practical

Many sources of odor, including pet urine and tobacco smoke, require specialized procedures and techniques and are best addressed by a certified professional.

HiCaliber is dedicated to eliminating all traces of odor from the affected area or material. However, this isn’t always an easy task. Even with thorough cleaning, odor molecules can hide inside porous materials like wood, drywall, carpeting, etc. Thankfully, the HiCaliber specialists employ professional cleaning techniques and are equipped with Ozone and Thermal Fog machines to ensure professional quality cleaning and odor improvement. These machines, coupled with interior premium detail, are highly effective at transforming air quality.

The Ozone and Thermal Fog machines are placed in the affected area, filling all crevices and compartments with Ozone fumes which destroy bacteria, viruses and odors. Once the area is cleared of the bad odor, the area is ventilated to rid the room of the Ozone fumes, returning air quality to healthy breathing conditions.
