“Coronavirus” is an umbrella term for many types of viruses that have been known to cause respiratory diseases in both people and animals. The 2019 Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19; previously 2019-nCoV) is a new strain that has been recently discovered and publicized worldwide. PuroClean of Dana Point uses the PuroClean RapidDefense™ system to provide deep mitigation cleaning in areas compromised by a Coronavirus or Influenza outbreak. Using this process, the team at PuroClean of Dana Point will carefully contain the area and will minimize the risk of pathogens spreading using The Environmental Protection Agency-registered (EPA) products. If there are any lingering odors, our trained technicians will deodorize the area and return your Laguna Niguel, CA area property back to its pre-loss condition with empathy and care.
The coronavirus pandemic is still spreading and world leaders in government and health experts continue to urge all individuals to follow strict and particular practices for protection. PuroClean’s Laguna Niguel, CA coronavirus cleaning practices help reduce COVID-19 outbreak related contamination. We are currently doing deep mitigation cleaning of all touch-point surfaces, and also using EPA-registered disinfectant. Our COVID-19 cleaning services are available for any commercial, residential, industrial and institutional areas. Get in touch with PuroClean today to find out more about our COVID-19 cleaning services and more.
It has been publicly announced that the spread of COVID-19 is caused by individuals who are in close contact with each other (within about 6 feet), through tiny respiratory droplets that are blown into the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes. The tiny droplets land in the mouths or noses of others who are nearby. It is also possible for these droplets to be inhaled into the lungs. This is why COVID-19 is believed to spread most prevalently from person-to-person.
According to the CDC, it could likely be possible that a person can get COVID-19 by touching a surface or object that has the virus on it and then touching their own mouth, nose, or even their eyes.
PuroClean will initially conduct a complete inspection of your home or office. PuroClean will then make a determination on the level of containment required and discuss with you the plan of action.
Initially, Puroclean technicians will arrive at your location and perform a preliminary inspection to make sure the area is prepared for our cleaning services. Afterwards the plan of the work is determined by our technicians, in order to do the required work as expeditiously as possible.
It is key to perform biohazard removal with strict attention to safety and industry and OSHA standards. Our trained technicians wear special Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) to ensure their safety. They also identify the area, taking the needed steps to keep you and your family or employees safe as well.
First, wearing proper PPE is a requirement. Puroclean technicians wear a full-face respirator to guard against splashes coming in contact with the mucous membranes of the mouth, nose, or eyes. PuroClean professionals also wear Biohazard protective coveralls, shoe covers, and Nitrile gloves.
Our extensively trained and certified technicians use EPA-registered hospital-grade disinfectant products, such as towelettes, containing pharmaceutical ingredients that meet OSHA’s bloodborne pathogen standard against diseases like COVID-19 and other disease-causing bacteria, viruses, tuberculosis, mold, and mildew.
The cleaning materials commonly used by our technicians include:
Puroclean uses three methods for applying disinfectants. Depending on the circumstances, our workers apply hospital grade, EPA-registered disinfectants in one of these three ways:
Synthetic curtains, upholstery and rugs: Our professionals will thoroughly clean these items manually or apply approved disinfectants for machine washing for these carpets and textiles and perform extraction where necessary.
Natural fabrics, rugs, curtains, and upholstery must be cleaned in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
Disinfecting linens, clothing and personal fabrics: The instructions on each label should be followed when laundering the contaminated articles. Note: Remember to disinfect washing machines following washing contaminated clothing.
Leather tanned materials: PuroClean will clean these materials by using disinfectant towelettes for wiping the surfaces with a lightly dampened cloth.
Suede and Nu-buck leather material – Cleaned following the manufacturer’s guidelines.
Plywood, wood, block, cinder block, concrete and OSB (Oriented Strand Board): Cleaned by the application of disinfectants right on the surface.
HVAC System: Industry guidelines should be followed for the cleaning of internal HVAC ducts surfaces and components; by a licensed HVAC contractor or NADCA certified duct cleaner. Also, the external ductwork, registers, grates, grills and surfaces are to be cleaned using a disinfectant solution.
Typically, when the affected area is cleaned and starts to dry, odors dissipate. However, our crew will determine whether further deodorization is necessary.
We understand that a biohazard event can be stressful and sensitive and must be handled with empathy, care and discretion. PuroClean restoration professionals are fully licensed and certified to follow all applicable laws and standards to remediate incidents safely.
RESPECTFUL: Our certified biohazard cleaning technicians treat every affected area and item respectfully and professionally, as if it were their own.
HIGHEST STANDARDS: PuroClean uses products that are approved to provide protection, prevent contamination and reduce the risk of spreading dangerous pathogens.
ADVANCED CLEANING SYSTEM: Our RapidDefense process sanitizes and even helps prevent virus and other pathogen-based contamination in nearby areas. This is an innovative process we use in order to sanitize public areas the most effective way possible.
Prior to vacating a project location in which the coronavirus had contaminated, the PuroClean technicians will perform a extensive and complete washing of all equipment, tools, and PPE that were used for the coronavirus cleanup using an EPA-registered hospital-grade disinfectant.
Per the CDC, Cleaning and disinfecting frequently touched objects and surfaces are the recommended actions to help prevent the spread of respiratory diseases, like coronavirus. Since any surface can be re-contaminated after cleaning, and because the coronavirus is also spread person-to-person, PuroClean’s services are not guaranteed to prevent the spread of coronavirus.
