Graduation – Time for Celebrating and Cleaning House

Spring – the annual clean house season, but also the time to celebrate young graduates from high school and college.  Preparing your home in anticipation of the attendance of multiple guests for graduation parties moves us into a frenzy to clean anything and everything, carpets included.

Although often overlooked with the frenzy of chair and table rentals, menus and invitation send-outs, carpets are one of your home’s largest thriving environments for dust, bacteria and other allergens as well as odor and pet dander.  This can easily be cleaned with eco-friendly products that thoroughly scrub the carpet and rinse it completely of any residue.

Regular carpet maintenance increases longevity, indoor air quality as well as keeps up-to-date warranty schedules on carpets 2007 and newer.  Clean carpets bring out the happiness in all of us, including those nit-picky relatives soon to be attending your son/daughter’s graduation party.

Green Clean Is Now Using ODOROX Hydroxyl Generators To Eliminate Odors

Green Clean is now using ODOROX hydroxyl generators to eliminate odors including but not limited to smoke, pet, mold, and mildew. ODOROX systems use green technology to provide the most effective and efficient solution to eliminate odors, decontaminate surfaces, and purify the air for residential and commercial needs. ODOROX allows for a safe environment for you, your children, and your pets during the process without the use of harsh chemicals. ODOROX leaves your home or business smelling fresh with all odors eliminated naturally.
The process is simple: ODOROX generates hydroxyls (·OH) which are safe, naturally occurring molecules that are created in the atmosphere when the sun’s ultraviolet rays react with water vapor.
ODOROX Hydroxyl Generators replicate this natural process, allowing implementation of a dual process attack on contaminants.

The processing chamber of ODOROX sanitizes airflow and produces the natural hydroxyls (·OH). The hydroxyl (·OH) molecules exit the chamber to decontaminate surfaces and purify the air.
“•Contaminated air is directed into the chamber where ambient humidity and multiple nanometer wavelengths and frequencies combine to create an oxidizing formula and produce hydroxyls.
•The quartz crystal optics are finely tuned to deodorize air flow, eradicate bacteria and other microorganisms, and produce hydroxyl molecules.
•The purified air is recycled back into the environment along with hydroxyls to further decontaminate surfaces & contents.
•Once the hydroxyls are created, they are sent to “seek and destroy” odor molecules, bacteria, viruses, mold, VOCs and other chemicals.
•Notably, the process simultaneously decontaminates the air, surfaces, and objects.
•This system does not require all of the contaminants within a room to pass through the processing chamber, which guarantees a more rapid and thorough decontamination.
•Outside the unit the hydroxyls immediately begin a cascade reaction in the air, creating even more hydroxyls. The cascade of hydroxyls quickly disperse throughout the air and penetrates surfaces and objects.
•The hydroxyl molecule sanitizing pollutants in the far corner of the room is not necessarily the same hydroxyl molecule that exited the generator.
•Any quenched hydroxyls are continuously replaced by the system, providing constant decontamination.”

ODOROX is a great way to naturally eliminate odors you may be experiencing, and Green Clean would like to help you through a smooth and healthy odor-eliminating process with ODOROX!

Many would be alarmed to learn that a product like Comet Powder Cleanser releases more than a hundred air contaminants including chloroform, benzene, and formaldehyde. This is just one product many other contaminants that are found in many households.

The benefits of annual Carpet Cleaning

Most Carpet Manufacturers recommend professional carpet cleaning by an IICRC Certified Carpet Cleaner every 12-18 months to maintain the warrantee. Regular Carpet Cleaning should be performed just like routine maintenance on you car or furnace. What happens when you don’t change your oil or your furnace filter on a regular basis? It wears out and requires additional maintenance and often times requires replacement before it is necessary. Carpets are the same way! Quality yarn systems require regular maintenance just like anything else. Think of your carpets just like a giant air filter almost like a secondary furnace filter which harbors all sorts of dust, soils and allergens. Regular Carpet Cleaning with eco-friendly cleaning products can greatly improve indoor air quality which in turn improves the health of the occupants. In addition it also removes soils that cause damage to carpet fibers and greatly increases the life of the carpet.
