How does this version of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) Spread?

The Spreading of Person-to-Person

Individuals who are in close contact with one another (within about 6 feet) are at the highest risk of spreading COVID-19 in a “person-to-person” manner. Small respiratory droplets caused by coughing or sneezing produce tiny droplets that possibly will land on the nose or mouth or be inhaled into the lungs of someone nearby. This is most commonly how COVID-19 spreads rapidly. Therefore, it is believed that person-to-person is the most common way the disease spreads.

Spread from contact with contaminated surfaces or objects

There is a possibility that COVID-19 can be contracted when an individual physically touches a surface or object with the virus present, then touches their mouth or nose. The CDC confirms that this type of spreading is highly likely.

We Prioritize Safety

While Puroclean is performing biohazard removal, full attention and adherence to safety, industry, and OSHA standards is highly important. Also, our biohazard removal is done by technicians who will wear appropriate protective equipment, also known as PPE (Personal Protective Equipment). PuroClean will section off the areas to undergo the cleaning process, using caution so as to protect customers, their families, and PuroClean employees.

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

PPE is required to be worn by our cleanup technicians. The equipment worn consists of Nitrile gloves, shoe covers, Biohazard protective coveralls, as well as a full-face respirator. The full face mask provides protection from splashing that would possibly reach the mucous membranes in the eyes, nose, and mouth.

EPA-registered Hospital-grade Products

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

Our Cleaning Materials for Coronavirus Calls

Our technicians typically use the following cleaning materials:

1. Portable carpet extractor for cleaning carpets and upholstery
2. Mops and buckets
3. Trigger or Pressure sprayers
4. Tape for Sealing Industrial Trash Bags
5. Disposable microfiber cleaning brushes and sponges

Our Application Procedures for Disinfectant

Depending on the circumstances, our professionals apply hospital grade and EPA-registered disinfectants using three techniques.

1. Spray application – This procedure uses a pump or electric sprayer. It’s the preferred system and can be used whenever the surface or item is visibly free of soil and dirt.
2. Disinfecting towelettes – We use them to wipe electronic items such as phones or computers. Towelettes are preferred if the surface or item has visible, light soil or dirt.
3. Microfiber wipes and/or pads: These are used along with cleaning products in a spray bottle, properly labeled. Using these is an alternative to using pre-treated disinfecting towelettes.

Process for Cleaning Porous Surfaces and Materials

Synthetic rugs, carpets, curtains, and upholstery: Our Technicians will clean these items by hand or by machine cleaning. Approved disinfectants for the appropriate cleaning of the textiles and carpet will be applied for the cleaning; spot removal 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 items are washed. For the disinfecting of clothing, linens, and other personal fabrics, contaminated articles are to be laundered per instructions on every label.

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

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

Plywood, OSB (oriented strand board), concrete, and cinder block: These materials are cleaned by the application of the disinfectant solution directly 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. Also, external ductwork grates, grills, surfaces and registers will be cleaned with disinfectant cleaners.

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.
