Welcome to the world of Science, Tchnology, Education, Profit and Professionalism; The STEPP program of NIOPCC.
Technical Bulletin 101. Following Dr. Michael A. Berry’s book, Cleaning for Health, it is important for you to identify all the types of carpet residues, large and small particles, and living organisms found in carpets in order to truly clean for health, thus making Cleaning for Health the most important certification you can obtain.
Your test sample already has oily soil including traffic lane gray that would typically be found in most carpets. Using a glass container that will fit inn the microwave, put your soiled sample and 1 cup of your liquid cleaner diluted to manufacturer’s specifications and place in the microwave for approximately 3 minutes until solution boils. Boiling will reproduce your steam cleaning and represents 212 degrees. Carefully remove the container. With a pair of tweezers, remove the sample and place on a paper towel, allowing it to dry. After sample has dried, visually inspect the sample to determine if there is any residual soil. Your cleaning results may vary. Ideally, you want your sample to show no evidence of any residue or stain.
Most professional cleaning supplies or janitorial chemicals will not get your sample clean. It takes a high quality professional product to truly clean. Soap and water solutions will not get the job done.
If your sample did not come clean, call us to find out who has the proper cleaning solutions to get the carpet extremely clean.
Training through NIOPCC will teach you how to get the typical soils and oily residue out of carpet and what products to use. Training includes identifying which biocides are safe to get out the bacteria, mold and spores in order to leave a carpet truly clean without endangering your health or the environment.
