Coronavirus- COVID-19 Disinfecting Services

What Are Disinfecting Services?

 

Disinfecting services are cleaning procedures that utilize a disinfectant.  A disinfectant is an antimicrobial pesticide used on inanimate surfaces and objects to destroy or irreversibly inactivate microorganisms. Disinfecting services for commercial facilities should use hospital type disinfectants that are used for infection control. The disinfecting cleaning procedures used can vary depending on the facility, tools, chemical, even company providing the service ranging from deep cleaning, disinfectant fogging and electrostatic-sprayer dispersal.

 

DHC, LLC. utilizes the new standard for infection prevention; Electrostatic Sprayers. Electrostatic Sprayers are a powerful tools to attack microbes and decontaminate facilities more efficiently and effectively. Combined with EvaClean’s powerful and versatile disinfecting and sanitizing solution- PURTABS.

 

 

PURTABS are EarthSafe’s infection prevention solutions have played a pivotal role in preventing the spread of COVID-19. 

​

PURTABS are EPA List N approved products effective against COVID-19. These EPA registered tablets dissolve quickly in water to form a sanitizing solution that is NSF D2 certified safe for food contact surfaces with no rinsing required. 

​

PURTABS are effervescent disinfecting and sanitizing tablets that deliver accurate strength solution. 

 

PURTABS produce a variety of strengths that meet the range of needs for every facility. From the low-level sanitization required for food-contact surfaces, to powerful infection control for C. diff in healthcare settings.

The EvaClean Infection Prevention Program is a fully integrated program using a single chemistry solution throughout the whole cleaning process. By using one chemistry, NaDCC, throughout the cleaning process you eliminate confusion about what to use when. Our tablets have one set of directions for both cleaning (PUR:ONE) and disinfecting (PURTABS).  By combining both the technology and chemistries into one complete solutions package, EvaClean allows workers and infection prevention experts to standardize their processes and eliminate many of the training and education challenges faced in programs that still use mops, buckets, wipes, rags, and spray bottles with a multitude of chemistries each with their own unique usage guidelines, dwell times, and safety procedures. The EvaClean Program optimizes workflow, simplifies training, and reduces costs, while delivering more predictable and repeatable results that greatly exceed those of current disinfection and sanitizing programs.

 

Electrostatic Treatment

​

What Is Electrostatic Disinfection? 

Electrostatic spray surface cleaning is the process of spraying an electrostatically charged mist onto surfaces and objects. Electrostatic spray uses a specialized solution that is combined with air and atomized by an electrode inside the sprayer. Subsequently, the spray contains positively charged particles that are able to aggressively adhere to surfaces and objects. Because the particles in the spray are positively charged, they cling to and coat any surface they’re aimed at. For awkwardly shaped objects or hard to reach places, cleaning staff only have to point and spray; the nature of the mist allows it to coat surfaces evenly, and envelope objects—even if the mist is only sprayed from one side. After the spray is applied, the sanitizing agent works to disinfect the covered surfaces. For this reason, electrostatic spray is an excellent solution for germ and contaminant ridden areas.

 

How Does Electrostatic Disinfection Work?

 

Electrostatic spray is electrically charged, allowing the appropriate sanitizers, mold preventatives and disinfectants to wrap around and evenly coat all types of surfaces for a more complete clean. As the chemical exits the electrostatic sprayer, it’s given a positive electrical charge. The droplets then become attracted to all negative surfaces, covering the visible area, underside and backside, with the sanitizing agent. Surfaces that are already covered will repel the spray, making the method extremely efficient.
