Clean X cleaning and disinfection equipment

What equipment do we use?

, , 0

As our specialty is deep cleaning and disinfection services, we wanted to share with you the equipment we use that sets-up apart from normal type of cleaning.

Our equipment has been particularly chosen for their high standard in cleaning, for their portability and for their reliability.

They are divided in 2 categories: the ones we use for our deep cleaning and the ones for our disinfection services.

Deep cleaning

Hydro-vacuum

At the corner stone of a good and fast cleaning is our hydro-vacuum. The one that we chose is from the German company Gruenheim.

Not only it’s capable of delivering high vacuum power, its special trick is to trap the dirt and dust into water and doesn’t use any filter.

One of the advantage of this system is that the dirt and dust is effectively trapped inside the tank while vacuums using a filter tend to release some dust back in the air.

An other one is since there’s no filter, there’s no risk of clogging. A clogged filter is not capable of sucking dirt and dust anymore and the user might not even realize it.

Finally, using water instead of a filter is better for the environment as it doesn’t create any waste.

Moreover, our hydro-vacuum is capable of using accessories that are particularly efficient for cleaning challenging surfaces like a carpet. Here are 2 we want to show you:

Carpet brush

The carpet brush is the best tool to make your carpet like new. Because of its shape and it’s rotating brush, it ensures the high-power suction efficiency throughout its coverage area.

Not only it helps to maintain the high suction capacity of the vacuum, it also makes the cleaning safe for your carpet.

Carpet cleaning for house and business

Power brush

Our power brush is used after the shampooing of the carpet. Its goal is to successfully vacuum the dirty soap out of the carpet.

To do so, it injects clean water that will rinse the shampoo while both being sucked in at the same time to the dirt tank of the vacuum.

The result is the full removal of the dirt, dust, particles trapped in the shampoo without leaving any residue.

Thanks to this technology, Clean X can definitely provide a truly deep cleaning of your carpet.

Carpet Cleaning

Dry-steamer

Our dry steamer is particularly useful in the following type of cleaning:

  • pieces of furniture made of fabrics
  • hard to remove stains like those you find in the kitchen
  • dirty tiles, in particular the tile grouts

Because our steamer is set to produce a steam at 170 degrees Celsius, not only it will clean the surface but it will sanitize it as well. For more information about the difference between sanitizing and disinfecting, please visit our post here.

This equipment is particularly useful when cleaning a sofa made of fabrics. After shampooing the sofa, we steam the surface while at the same time we vacuum the steam and shampoo. This will allow to deeply remove the dust and dirt while not leaving any shampoo residue.

Also, did we mention that steam is able to kill insects that might live in your mattress such like bed bugs?

Yes, we can treat bed bugs by applying steam to a mattress.

Disinfection equipment

Fogger

As the whole World is battling a virus pandemic, Clean X is fully prepared to make sure your house or office is clean.

Our fogger is capable of producing particles that are as small as 5 microns. Our hospital grade disinfecting solution is therefore able to disinfect the air but also to reach the smallest nooks and crannies of your space.

Our hospital grade disinfectant is not only environmental friendly, it is also capable to kill 99.9% of germs, including the coronavirus.

Ultraviolet light

How our disinfection is done?

, , , , , , , , 0

In one of our previous post, we discussed the difference between cleaning, sanitizing, disinfecting and sterilizing. If you haven’t seen it yet, please check it out here.

This time, we want to show you how Clean X translates all of these into our complete cleaning offering.

Cleaning

Our Cleaning depends of the surface.

When we are dealing with a piece of furniture that is made of fabrics, our cleaning consists in vacuuming its surface.

The vacuum we use is a hydrovac type. It means that when in operation, it sucks all the dirt and dust and traps it into water. This is important as it won’t release these into the air, unlike household vacuums.

For surfaces such as desks, tables, copy machines, etc. We wipe them with a cleaning agent.

Though this is our basic service, we usually go an extra mile by sanitizing our client’s space.

Sanitizing

This step is offered by default with our general cleaning and it consists of the following:

Dry steaming of surfaces in order to clean them even further and to kill germs such as bacteria, fungi, parasites and viruses.

Our steaming process has a wide range of use such as deep cleaning and sanitizing fabric made furniture (carpet, sofa, curtains, beds, etc.).

It is also very efficient in cleaning hard to get places and difficult to remove stains and dirt. For instance, steam is very efficient into cleaning cooking stoves and bathrooms grout tiles.

Not only it cleans them, but it also sanitize them.

As we mentioned it before, the purpose of steam sanitizing is to lower the presence of germs into a level that is safe to humans. It is one of the most environmentally friendly and cost effective way to clean and sanitize a surface.

For our clients who needs an extra level of cleaning, we offer disinfection services.

Disinfection

Our disinfection service can only happen after the two previous steps have been carried out.

Depending on our client’s needs, we offer the following:

Surface disinfection

This is done with the application of Hospital Grade Disinfectant onto surfaces such as desks, tables, kitchen top, etc.

This step will kill 99.9% of germs including the famous coronavirus. 

We’ll also apply our disinfecting solution to frequently touched surfaces like doorknobs.

Room disinfection

In order to disinfect a room completely, the best and fastest way is to use a fogging machine that will cover the entire room with a disinfectant. 

Not only the air will be in contact with the disinfecting solution but also all the surfaces.

As our machine is capable of making 5 microns disinfecting droplets, these will be able to reach all nooks and crannies of your house or office.

This is the best and cost effective way to clean big spaces.

Sterilization

In laboratory, sterilization is done by steaming utensils in a close compartment for a long period.

Unfortunately, it is not applicable for sterilizing open spaces.

Nevertheless, there’s an other technology that is used to sterilize water, utensils and bigger space: Ultraviolet Light.

In a previous post, we discussed the advantage of UV lights. You may want to visit it here.

Clean X offers UV lights sterilization and its application will kill all microbes including bacteria, viruses, parasites and fungus.

UV light for disinfection

Are UV lights effective for virus disinfection?

, , , , , , , , , , 0

With the active pandemic, we realized that without a working vaccine, we are ill equipped to fight the battle against new emerging viruses.

Because of the highly contagious property of SARS-NCOV-2 (the virus responsible for COVID-19), we are all looking for ways to disinfect our space, be it at home or in our workplace.

Though we have some ways to minimize our exposure (social distancing), we also have other ways to kill the virus on the surface of our homes or office. One example is chemical disinfectant.

Nevertheless, disinfectants have limitations: they cannot reach porous surfaces like fabrics nor nook and crannies that the user missed.

Fogging disinfectant chemicals is an other solution where the fog created by the mix of water and disinfectant can reach smaller places and allows fast disinfection of huge space. Unfortunately, it is possible for the fog to miss a virus because it is being spread in vast spaces.

Comes an other solution: disinfection through the use of Ultraviolet light or UV light.

What are ultraviolet UV lights?

UV light for rent for house and office in Angeles, Clark, Pampanga Philippines

Ultraviolet is a high energy light created by photons coming from a light source.

In its natural state, UV lights are produced by the sun. Whenever you walk under the sun, you can feel the warmth of it. What you actually feel, is the UV lights generated by the sun.

There are 3 types of UV lights:

UVA: the lowest energy for of UV, it’s mostly responsible for creating warmth and the tanning effect on your skin.

UVB: contains more energy and can be responsible for skin disease if exposed for a very long duration.

UVC: the highest energy category of UV light. Though produced by the sun, we are not affected by it because it is neutralized by the earth’s ozone layer before reaching us.

It is the UVC that has the benefits to kill micro-organism.

How does UV lights kill germs like viruses?

UV lights can penetrate the microbe’s cells and damage their DNA or RNA (for viruses) that contains their genetic codes. Damaged DNA will kill the germs while damaged RNA will not allow the virus to replicate itself.

There’s also evidence that ultraviolet can damage the envelope of a virus and would kill it or would refrain it from attaching itself to our internal cells and avoid an infection.

UVC light for disinfection for home and office use

Who uses UV lights?

Though you might only have heard of it recently but ultraviolet is widely used. Since 1910, it is one of the way we treat water for human consumption.

Lately, some hospitals use devices that generates UV lights to disinfect their rooms, including their operating rooms.

What are the advantages of using UV lights to disinfect a space?

– UV lights don’t use any chemical so it’s environmental friendly.
– They are very easy to use. Just place the light in a room, leave the room and activate it wirelessly.
– They can reach all corners of a room.
– Anything that is in the line of sight of the light will be disinfected.

What are the disadvantages of UV lights?

– UV light is a good solution to disinfect a space but anything that was not in direct line of sight of the light won’t be disinfected.
– UV lights can be harmful to humans if not properly used. For instance, no one must be exposed to the light while in operation. Skin and eye disease might arise if someone has been exposed for some time.

Do’s and don’ts of UV lighting disinfection

Do’s

– DO clean and organize the room before the use of the light so its effect will be maximized.
– DO air the room for 20 minutes after use as an odor is being emanated due to the operations of the light bulb.
– DO handle the light carefully as it is fragile.
– DO use the remote to activate or disactivate the light.

Don’ts

– DO NOT stay in the room when the light is on.

Carpet Cleaning

How to clean your carpet as best as you can

, , , , , , , 0

Because of its look or because of its feel, you probably have a carpet at home or in your office.

Unfortunately, they tend to get dirty very fast. This is caused by an accumulation of dirt and stains from people’s shoes.

Worst, people coming and going also leads to germs spreading on the carpet. In case you easily get allergies or asthma, carpets tends to attract dust that can be release each time someone walks on it. This is worst if you have pets at home or kids crawling and playing around.

The difficulties with cleaning a carpet

Carpet cleaning for house and business

Because of its fabric materials, those dust, dirt, stains and germs are trapped inside it. Removing them can be a big challenge.

Vacuuming: probably the best way to remove dust from the carpet but stains, odors and germs will still be trapped inside.

Shampooing: it will take care of odors and stains but it since you can’t extract the dirty water and shampoo combination, the result might just be spreading the stains around. Also, if the carpet is not properly dried, the carpet smell might become even more pronounced.

Using odor removing spray: it will help the carpet smell good but its effect is only temporary and doesn’t take care of the dirt, dust, stains and germs.

What are the proper ways to clean your carpet?

Unfortunately, because of these challenges, you’ll need specific equipment to do a proper carpet cleaning. For instance, a combination of shampoo and vacuum is the best way to clean it.

You could shampoo the carpet then vacuum the dirt out. This implies that the vacuum you are using is capable of sucking liquids. Also, it has to be powerful enough to suck everything.

For the drying, the use of a fan is recommended as insufficient drying might lead to unpleasant odors.

What’s the difference between cleaning, sanitizing and disinfecting

, , , , , , , , 0

As we are all trying to protect ourselves from this pandemic caused by sars-ncov-2 virus that caused COVID-19, let’s review the difference between cleaning, sanitizing and disinfecting.

The whole purpose of this article is to understand how to remove germs from a space. By germs, we mean bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites. Though all of these are very different in their biological constitution, yet harmful to humans, removing them from your space is very important.

Cleaning

The purpose of cleaning is to remove dirt, stains, allergens soil and chemical residues from the surfaces we want clean.

At the most basic level, using water and wiping it out would already provide some level of cleaning. Adding soap in the water will increase the number of particles to be removed from the surface.

Nevertheless, a clean surface doesn’t mean it is sanitized, nor disinfected. As germs are invisible, you might not see them but they are still able to cause harm to you and families.

For an other level of protection, you might want to sanitize your space.

Cleaning products to clean, disinfect, sanitize

Sanitizing

Sanitizing is the process to reduce the number of micro-organisms (germs) to a safe level for humans.

This is usually done with the help of soap.

When using soap and rinse it with clean water and wiped with a cloth, most of the germs are being removed from the surface.

An other way to sanitize your space is through the use of dry steam. High temperature water vapor projected on the surface will create heat that will kill the micro-organisms.

Though most of them are removed or killed, some might remain in the surface.

To ensure maximum safety for yourself and loved ones, you should disinfect your space.

cleanx.clark

CLEAN X Clark

Disinfecting

Now that a surface has been cleaned and sanitized, it is time to kill all micro-organism.

The process of disinfection involves chemicals that will eliminate germs in your surface.

There are so many of them that can be used such as bleach, Lysol, alcohol and hospital grade disinfectant.

Each one of them has a different curing time that must be taken into account. Some of them are harmful to humans or the environment. Others might damage the surface to be cleaned.

For instance using bleach on fabrics will definitely damage it.

The choice of your disinfectant should be well thought of.

There are other methods to disinfect such as fogging.

Sterilizing

The goal of sterilizing is to reduce the amount of germs to zero. It’s usually done in laboratories with the help of an autoclave to sterilize instruments. The autoclave steams water within its tank for a longer time (e.g. 30 minutes). This will kill every microbe present on the items being sterilized.

An other way to sterilize is with the use of Ultraviolet lights. Please click the following to know more about our UV light treatment.

Clean X’s way to clean, sanitize and disinfect your space.

Our cleaning service will take into consideration the type of surface that needs to be cleaned, sanitized or disinfected.

For instance, for bathroom fixture, we will use a mix of steam and bleach to reach the level of a thorough disinfection.

For kitchen, we will use a detergent and a hospital grade disinfectant to get rid of all germs.

For a desk, we will wipe and remove dirt and stains from the surface. To achieve a disinfection level, we will use our hospital grade disinfectant to kill all micro-organisms.

For furniture that involves fabrics such as a mattress or a sofa. Our best tool to sanitize them is by shampooing, steaming and vacuuming the furniture. Not only it removes the germs but it will make it like new with a pleasant smell.
