Professional cleaning and sanitization drives are vital to maintaining the health and safety standards in a residential or commercial property. Given the havoc coronavirus pandemic wreaked on the world recently, the need for professional sanitizing has become indispensable.
But, how exactly does professional sanitization work? What are the steps involved and does it do any good? We’ll find answers to these questions in this post so stick around till the very end. Let’s get started!
Steps Involved in Professional Cleaning and Sanitization
1. Probing and Analysis
The very first step to professionally clean and sanitize a space is analysis. We need to know what we are getting into before we start treating the property. Now, during the analysis, we need to know if there have been any cases of virus spread. If yes, then how long has it been. We also need to know what kind of stuff is there inside the property. It just helps us prepare more thoroughly. Most importantly, we need to classify the rooms inside the property w.r.t their proximity to the virus or an infected person.
2. Segmenting Items
Once probing is done, we need to segment the items inside your property. There will be items that are less used and there will be ones that are used frequently. Treating both kinds of items equally is not recommended. If there are electronics in the space, we need to take care of them too. Our sanitization process does not affect paper and other documents. So, they can be left as they are. We are more concerned about electronics and furniture.
3. Use a Disinfectant Sprayer
Now, we are all set to get started with the disinfection. First, we spray the disinfectant using a disinfectant sprayer all over the place and let the solution sit for three to five minutes. This is the basic disinfecting process that will set up a solid foundation for the rest of the sanitization process. Once you spray the disinfectant and let it sit, wipe off the surface with a cloth. You don’t need to wipe the floor though.
4. Electrostatic Sprayer
The next step in any professional sanitization process is the application of the electrostatic spray. It is nothing but cleaning and sanitizing a surface using an electrostatically charged mist. The electrostatic spray uses a specialized solution that can easily get atomized. The process will generate positively charged particles that can be sprayed in the room. Since the particles in the solution are charged, they will stick to the surface and enable effective sanitization.
5. Disinfectant Fogger
The disinfectant fogger is not necessary but does provide an extra layer of protection. We usually apply the disinfectant fogger when we know nobody is returning to the place at least in the next four to five hours. This is because the mist remains in the air for a long time after application. The fogger is used mainly to sanitize larger and hard-to-reach areas. Additionally, it also clings to the viruses in the air and pulls them to the ground.
6. Cleaning High-Touch Points
Lastly, we check all the high-touch points like doorknobs, microwave oven, light switches, keyboards, tables, chairs, and more. We ensure the solution reached these high-touch points and put the stamp of approval so they are good to use. The fogger is perfect for these high-touch points and can be used even on paper or items of regular use. However, keep all the edibles away before you begin with the sanitization process.
