Electrostatic Spray Disinfection Application

Electrostatic disinfection is an incredible scientific process that applies disinfectant registered by the EPA to kill 99.9% of a broad spectrum of viruses and bacteria on every surface – front to back, top to bottom, and every inch in between. Here’s how it works:

1. Most surfaces are naturally negatively charged.
2. Electrostatic sprayers run disinfectant through one or more batteries, causing the disinfectant to become positively charged.
3. When the disinfectant is sprayed onto a surface, each positively-charged disinfectant particle searches out a negatively-charged surface particle to pair with. This one-to-one pair causes positively-charged spray particles to be drawn to the nearest available negatively charged particle at 75 times the force of gravity.
4. The surface experiences nearly instant, complete disinfectant coverage. In a matter of seconds, the EPA registered disinfectant kills 99.9% of viruses and bacteria.

Electrostatic spraying provides significantly better coverage of surfaces, as opposed to a typical directional sprayer.

Electrically charged liquids create a fine mist which has a 360° wrap around effect, through the air.

Gets into unreachable nooks, crannies and crevices that typical cleaning may miss.

Droplets hold their cationic charge for 2-3 seconds on surfaces – resisting each other to spread evenly, and reducing dripping.

Also fights odours and mold. Germs in the air that the mist interacts with are destroyed.

Non-Toxic, Yet Highly Effective, Disinfectant

J&C’s disinfectant liquid is not harmful to humans, animals, plant or marine life – yet it kills 99.9% of viruses and bacteria. The chemicals found in common disinfectant products can be toxic and harmful to your health – J&C avoids using these for the health & safety of our clients and staff, as well as being earth friendly.

No protective equipment is required.

Spaces can be occupied within 15min after spraying to give the product the chance to fully dry.

What to Expect: Very unhappy germs!

With the add-on of our Disinfectant Spraying Service to your regular cleaning, all accessible areas are sprayed. These include: the lower perimeter of all rooms and spaces, all furniture and outer of appliances, and extra attention to higher risk areas such as touch-points, bathrooms, kitchens, etc.

Generally, best practices dictate that cleaning be performed prior to disinfection.(It simply comes down to the disinfectant being able to directly contact all areas of the surface, whereas if dirt were present it may block the disinfectant…).

In general, effective disinfection requires that the product remain wet on the target surfaces; the length varies from 1 to 10 minutes (or more) depending on the type of disinfectant, and the level of germ killing desired. Upon the liquid drying a very light residue may appear, especially on shiny surfaces like glass or chrome. This is easy to dust or damp-wipe off, however dry residue will continue to provide sanitizing action if it remains.

NOTE Regarding Removing Residue: Depending on how you obtain your services listed below, if disinfecting spray is the last step performed, J&C does not include polishing off of residue. We would be happy to do so (we love polishing :), however additional fees would apply.

J&C does not move furniture, rugs, art, etc. Small, non-breakable, objects which can be picked up with one hand (ie. throw cushions or toilet seats) will be lifted by staff while spraying. De-cluttering is recommended (unless you want those objects sprayed. J&C will take all reasonable precautions, however we will not be responsible for objects susceptible to liquid damage (such as paper documents, leather, valuables, etc).

J&C will not spray inside clothes closets or cabinets unless specifically requested. Bedding will be generally avoided (the best way to disinfect bedding is in your Washing machine or having it steamed), however bedding will likely be exposed to some spray. Bed frames do get sprayed.

*As a result of our site assessment, (considering the biohazard risk or any other requirements): should J&C determine that the situation requires it, we may indicate services will only be provided if the full package of ‘Pre-Disinfecting-spray, then cleaning, then post-disinfecting-spray’ is completed.
