Our proprietary high pressure dry fog system follows a room by room and HVAC protocol to fill the volume of the space to bathe the air, thus denaturing and deposing biological particles for removal.
The dry fog is composed of microscopic particles that are so small (6 microns) that no wet residue is left behind all while eliminating microorganisms. The material has been used for over 30 years to clean dialysis equipment and is safe for your furnishings, food, and fixtures. This system is both utilized as part of our remediation protocols and an ongoing indoor air quality maintenance program to achieve and maintain healthier indoor environments.
First we apply our EPA- approved sterilant, InstaPURE, that serves to denature biologicals on contact and just as importantly depose any remaining fragments onto horizontal surfaces for complete removal. Comprised of microscopic disinfectant particles that measure only a few microns, InstaPURE can permeate the hardest to reach recesses without damaging any surfaces. Although lethal to mold and pathogens, it’s safe enough to be FDA-approved for food contact.
The second step is the application of a microbiostatic antimicrobial called EverPURE which makes interior surfaces less hospitable to microbials. The chemical composition of this barrier is both charged and shaped to induce cellular disruption to fungi, providing an additional measure of protection.
Contaminants are pulled into the HVAC system and re-circulated 5-7 times per day, on average. The HVAC system is the respiratory system of the home and needs to be cleaned just like the rest of the occupied spaces. There is a considerable amount of offerings and information available for cleaning ductwork, however, due to the unseen and inaccessible nature of HVAC equipment, there is often a lack of transparency provided to property owners. There is however a research-based and verified standard of cleaning of which we hold certifications and through which we achieve the highest standard of care.
Approximately 50 million Americans suffer from some form of allergic disease, and that number is increasing. An allergic response is a cascading chain reaction unique to each individuals genes. For example, if you have an allergy to pollen, your immune system detects the pollen and a foreign invader (allergen). Your immune system will respond by producing antibodies called Immunoglobulin E (IgE) that travel to cells where chemicals are released causing an allergic reaction. This reason usually causes symptoms in the following:
Improves Air Quality
Reduces Allergens and Irritants
Improves Energy Efficiency
Removes Unpleasant Smells and Odors
Improves Air Flow Efficiency
Wheezing
Frequency of cleaning depends on several factors, not the least which is the occupant health profile and background of the home. General reference standards cite the need for an annual inspection of the inside of the duct system and to perform cleaning when the ductwork has accumulated dust. A general reference for maintenance cleanings is every 5 years.

This reason usually causes symptoms in the following:
Visually dirty or tested for specific contamination
Fire, smoke, and water contamination
Pets that shed high amounts of hair and dander
Allergies and asthma sufferers
Immune-compromised or environmentally sensitive occupants
Prior to occupancy of a new building
*Harvard University, Duke University and the University of Nevada have conducted studies of typical airstream materials, which demonstrate that all typical materials used in ducts can experience microbial growth when the proper conditions exist.

Environmentally acquired illness refers to chronic health problems caused by exposure to mold and other biotoxins, persistent Lyme disease, chemicals and VOC’s, heavy metals, dust, and other irritants found in the environment. The two primary causes are unhealthy indoor air and persistent infections.
Homes and buildings are inflicted with both leaks and occasions of elevated humidity that become contaminated with mold and bacteria. Many individuals will not exhibit short-term exposure symptoms, however, gene data research has identified a 20%-25% subset of the population that are unable to effectively remove (detox) the biotoxins causing persistent inflammation.
Chronic inflammation can trigger damage to multiple system of the body including, the brain, immune system, the heart, the lungs, and others. The inability to effectively process and remove these toxins creates a cumulative spiral that can lead to a complex chronic condition and subsequent disease.
