What we know about how Covid-19 Spreads

The Spreading of Person-to-Person

The virus is believed to spread mainly from person-to-person. This includes individuals who are in close contact with one another (within about 6 feet) and through respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes. The droplets then can land in the mouths or noses of people who are nearby or can also be breathed into the lungs.

Spread from contact with contaminated surfaces or objects

As stated by the CDC, there is a possibility that someone can contract COVID-19 by touching a surface or object with the virus on it and then placing their hand on their own mouth, nose, or even their eyes.

We pay special attention to these areas when doing coronavirus cleaning in Westerville, OH:

Prioritizing Safety

It is of high importance to work with biohazard removal while also paying strict attention to safety, industry and OSHA standards and guidelines. Our trained technicians wear specific Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) to ensure your personal safety. They also contain the area, taking the necessary steps to keep you and your family or employees safe as well.

Our PPE (Personal Protective Equipment)

All of our trained technicians are required to wear PPE. This particular protective equipment includes a full-face respirator that provides protection from any type of splashes reaching the mucous membranes in the mouth, nose, and eyes. Additionally, our technicians wear Biohazard protective coveralls, Nitrile gloves, and covers over their shoes.

Our Hospital-grade and EPA-registered Products

Our industry-certified technicians use EPA-registered hospital-grade disinfectant products, including towelettes, containing pharmaceutical ingredients that meet OSHA’s bloodborne pathogen standard against diseases like COVID-19 and more disease-causing bacteria, viruses, tuberculosis, mold, and mildew.

PuroClean Cleaning Materials for Coronavirus Calls

Our technicians typically use these appropriate cleaning materials:

1. Microfiber wipes, brushes and cleaning sponges
2. Trigger or Pressure sprayers
3. Garbage bags and tape for sealing
4. Mops and buckets
5. Portable carpet cleaners for carpets and upholstery

Disinfectant Application Procedures

Depending on the circumstances, Puroclean technicians apply EPA-registered hospital grade disinfectants using three methods.

1. Spray application: An electric pump or sprayer is normally used for this application. This item is preferred if the item or surface is free of visible dirt and soil.
2. Disinfecting towelettes: If any surface or item has visible light soil or dirt our preferred practice is disinfecting towelettes. They are used with a pump or electric sprayer on surfaces or items that are visibly lacking soil and dirt.
3. Microfiber pads/wipes: Typically, these are implemented as an alternative to using disinfecting towelettes – these are used along with appropriate products in a spray bottle that is correctly labeled.

The Cleaning of Porous Surfaces and Materials

Synthetic rugs, carpets, curtains and upholstery: PuroClean will clean these items by hand or by machine cleaning. Appropriate disinfectants for the appropriate cleaning of the textiles and carpet will be applied for the cleaning; extraction will be done where applicable.

Natural fabrics, rugs, curtains, and upholstery must be cleaned in accordance with the manufacturer’s guidelines.

To disinfect clothing, linens and other personal fabrics, the contaminated articles should be laundered per label instructions. IMPORTANT NOTE: Washing machines need to be disinfected after washing soiled materials.

Leather tanned materials: PuroClean will clean these materials by using disinfectant towelettes for wiping the surfaces with a lightly dampened cloth.

Nu-buck and suede leather material: These items are to be cleaned in accordance with the manufacturer’s guidelines.

Concrete, cinder block, wood, plywood, and oriented strand board (OSB) – Cleaned by applying the disinfectant solution directly onto the surface.

HVAC system – HVAC internal duct surfaces and components should be cleaned in focus with industry guidelines by a licensed HVAC contractor or NADCA certified duct cleaner. External duct surfaces, grills, grates, and registers should be cleaned with a disinfectant solution.

Our Deodorization Process

It is common for odors to dissipate when the affected areas are clean and begin to dry. However, the PuroClean technicians will decide if more cleaning and deodorizing is required.
