How Pressure Washing Can Sanitize and Disinfect Your Home

It’s one thing to clean your house thoroughly from top to bottom, but it’s another when you want it to be sanitized and free from germs and bacteria. Nowadays, it’s no longer enough to clean the inside and outside of your house. It’s not even the bare minimum. You need to make sure that every surface is disinfected and sanitized to make sure that you won’t catch anything from it.

If you want to sanitize and disinfect your home, it’s recommended to hire a professional to do it. Many power washing companies are capable of cleaning, disinfecting, and sanitizing your home using special equipment and materials. If you’re wondering how a process like pressure washing can disinfect surfaces, here’s a simple guide to help you understand how it’s possible.

Beyond Cleaning

In recent years, cleaning has evolved beyond just mere dirt removal. With the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s all the more important that you perform proper sanitization and disinfection in your home. This means that your normal cleaning techniques will no longer be optimal, and it requires processes like pressure washing or the use of chemicals to do that.

How Pressure Washing Works

Pressure washing is the use of high-pressure water to spray and remove layers of dirt, grime, and gunk on almost any surface. It can even utilize specialized cleaners or detergents to remove even the underlying dirt and microorganisms on the targeted surfaces. Using a high-powered engine, pressure washers employ a water pump that draws in detergent attached to the pressure washer’s nozzle and mixes it with the water before spraying. 

A variant of pressure washing called power washing works a bit differently by heating up the water to high temperatures. That, combined with the pressure of the machine, is capable of sanitizing and cleaning effectively. However, power washing can be a little too harsh and could damage certain surfaces like brick, concrete, or masonry.

The Sanitizing and Disinfecting Power of Pressure Washing

Pressures can doubly sanitize and disinfect, depending on the kind of solution used for cleaning. The detergent that mixes with water can be changed to double as a sanitizer. Most laboratories use this cleaning method as it is effective in getting rid of microorganisms like germs, bacteria, and viruses.

Please take note, however, that the cleaning agents used for most pressure washing services are not the same as the cleaning agents you use at home for disinfection. While they may have a similar makeup, professional pressure washers often use industrial-grade cleaners to ensure that surfaces are squeaky clean and germ-free.

In some cases, cleaning professionals use soft cleaning methods first and let the chemical solution soak first to kill the bacteria and viruses on the surface. After letting it soak for some time, pressure washers are then used to completely clean, sanitize, and disinfect the surface.

Conclusion

In this post-pandemic age, you need to step up when it comes to cleaning and making sure your house is free from any infectious residue on the walls and surfaces. With pressure washing services, you’re sure that every surface is clean and safe to use again.
