1. I’m having PureAirKC service my home. What should I do to prepare?
The home will need to be vacant during the dry fog process, so plan a place for you and your pets to be during the service. You will receive a message a few days prior to your appointment confirming the service and providing basic preparation instructions, such as opening all closets and closing all windows.
2. Do I need to take paintings and wall art down before the treatment?
Because of the dryness of the fog, PureAirKC has never had an issue with wall art or paintings. However, many people feel more comfortable taking down expensive paintings or covering them with a blanket.
3. What about fruit or other foods left out in the kitchen?
The EverPURE solution used by PureAirKC has been FDA approved for food contact. However, to retain the fresh taste of your produce, you may want to place it in a sealed bag or refrigerator during treatment.
4. How long before I can re-enter my home?
Each job is different depending on the size of the home. A PureAirKC employee will let you know how long the process will take when the bid is submitted. You may notice a different smell when you return, but it will dissipate quickly.
5. Is it safe?
The products are described by PureAirKC as environmentally friendly and EPA approved.
6. Do I need to get everything out of the house?
No. In fact, you want to keep as many of your belongings inside the home as possible. Mold spores can get trapped inside fabrics, furniture, clothing, mattresses, and other belongings, so these items should be treated as well.
7. Will it get behind my walls?
Our patented technology creates particles approximately 7.5 microns in size. Mold spores range from approximately 12 to 30 microns. This allows the fog to penetrate areas where mold spores may exist. In special situations where there is a known issue behind a wall, we can create small 1/8-inch access holes between the studs to treat the inside of the wall directly.
8. Will I need to clean everything after the treatment?
The treatment is designed to leave no residue, so your home and belongings should not require additional cleaning due to the fogging process.
9. Does it kill bugs?
Many customers report noticing fewer bugs after treatment. However, the product has not been approved by the EPA as a pesticide, so we do not make any claims regarding insect control.
10. What will the mold look like after the treatment?
Stains caused by mold may remain visible after treatment. We can clean these stains for you at a small additional cost, or you can choose to clean them yourself after the treatment is complete.
11. How long does it last?
If all moisture and water issues are resolved, the results can be very long-lasting. With minor water issues, such as humidity or condensation on windows, we have observed protection for up to six years due to the EverPURE antimicrobial protectant. With major ongoing water issues, protection may last approximately 90 days.
12. How will I know if it worked?
Your technician will take an air sample after completing the treatment and send it to an independent, accredited third-party laboratory. The lab has no affiliation with mold testing or remediation companies. Approximately 4–5 days after treatment, you will receive the results via email.
