What we know about how Covid-19 Spreads

Person-to-Person Spread

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

Spread from contact with contaminated surfaces or objects

It may be possible for someone to get the COVID-19 virus after touching an area with the virus on it and then touching their own mouth, nose, or eyes. The CDC confirms the possibility of the disease being spread in this manner.

PuroClean Restoration Professionals Coronavirus Cleaning Process:

Organization & Planning for Coronavirus Cleaning in Wilmington, NC

Your PuroClean techs will need to determine what level of containment you will need and discuss with you a plan of action. This is the initial step taken when they complete a full assessment of your home or office.

Coronavirus Procedures for On-site Cleaning

Initially, Puroclean technicians will arrive at your home or business and conduct a preliminary inspection to check that the area is prepared for our cleaning services. Following this, the plan of the work is determined by PuroClean, in order to do the required work as expeditiously as possible.

We pay special attention to these areas when doing coronavirus cleaning in Wilmington, NC:

We Prioritize Safety

It is important to perform biohazard abatement with special attention to safety and industry and OSHA standards. Our trained staff wear special Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) to keep themselves safe. They also contain the area, taking the appropriate steps to keep you and your family or employees out of harm’s way as well.

Personal Protective Equipment

First, wearing proper PPE is required. Puroclean technicians wear a full-face respirator to protect them against infected particles coming in contact with the mucous membranes of the mouth, nose, or eyes. The technicians also wear Biohazard protective coveralls, shoe covers, and Nitrile gloves.

Hospital-grade EPA-registered Products

Specific use towelettes are used that also conform to OSHA’s bloodborne pathogen standard to fight diseases like the coronavirus and other diseases, bacteria, mold, mildew, tuberculosis, and viruses. These and other cleaning supplies put to use by our industry certified professionals are all hospital grade and EPA-registered disinfectant products.

The Coronavirus Cleaning Materials

The typical cleaning materials used by our technicians include:

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

Our Application Procedures for Disinfectant

Puroclean uses three methods when using these disinfectants. Depending on the circumstances, technicians apply hospital grade, EPA-registered disinfectants in one of these three methods:

1. Spray application: A pump or electric sprayer is used for this process. This item is used mainly if the item or location is free of visible dirt and soil.
2. Disinfecting towelettes: Our technicians use these for wiping electronics like phones, computers, etc. Towelettes are a preferred method if the surface or item has visible or light dirt that is visible.
3. Microfiber wipes/pads: Used as alternatives to the towelettes, using these along with cleaning products from an appropriately labeled bottle is effective.

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 needed.

Natural fabric rugs, carpets, curtains and upholstery: These items are to be cleaned in strict accordance with the manufacturer’s labeled instructions.

Important: Washing machines should always be disinfected after contaminated materials are washed. For the disinfecting of clothing, linens and other personal fabrics, contaminated pieces are to be laundered per instructions on every label.

Tanned leather materials – We can clean these materials by wiping the surfaces with a cloth lightly moistened with disinfectant solution or disinfectant towelettes.

Suede and Nu-buck leather material – Cleaned according to 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 systems: The internal duct surfaces of the HVAC system and components should be cleaned by a licensed HVAC contractor or a duct cleaner who is NADCA certified in accordance with industry guidelines. Additionally, externally located ductwork grates, grills, surfaces and registers will be cleaned with disinfectant cleaners.

Deodorizing

Normally, when the affected location has been cleaned and begins to dry, the odors go away. Our trained professionals will decide, however, whether any more deodorization is required.

PuroClean’s Promise

We understand that a biohazard event can be sensitive and stressful 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 biohazard cleaning technicians treat every affected area and item professionally and respectfully, as if it were our own.

HIGHEST STANDARDS: PuroClean uses proven products approved to provide protection, reduce the likelihood of spreading pathogens and prevent contamination.

ADVANCED CLEANING SYSTEM: PuroClean RapidDefense is an innovative procedure used to start the disinfection process of public areas the most effective way possible. Our system uses sanitizers that help prevent virus and other pathogen-based contamination in areas close by.
