Benefits of Commercial Steam Cleaning

By definition cleaning is to remove soils from surfaces or materials. It is important that when it comes to disinfecting of surfaces cleaning must occur first. The surfaces must be cleaned prior to application of a disinfectant to be the most effective. Disinfect by definition is referred to as a 99.99% reduction of organisms. When it comes to the effectiveness of a product, it is important to realize if the surface is porous or non-porous. This may make the difference of the same product having different results. Here at SERVPRO we have our own proprietary cleaning and disinfecting products. Our disinfecting products carry an EPA registered number and qualify as a true disinfectant. The video you are about to watch shows our crew member cleaning and disinfecting our drying equipment using a steam cleaning tool. By keeping our equipment cleaned, we can reduce the chances for cross contamination. The principles of PPE, containment, negative pressure, cross contamination, cleaning, and disinfecting are all fundamental practices that SERVPRO uses on a daily basis.
