Fogging plays an extremely important role in COVID 19 disinfection service. There are various types of fogging services that are carried out by the experts to conduct COVID 19 cleaning and disinfection service. However, before we discuss them, let us know how disinfectant fogging works.
The foggers generally work by filling the areas to be disinfected, with a solution that is rich in disinfectant properties. There are different types of disinfectant fogger machines available in the market, with each providing different types of treatments, depending on the type of pathogen exposure the area to be cleaned has been exposed to and the surfaces.
The Most Common Types of Disinfectant Fogging Treatment Include:
- Chemical fogging
- Vapourised Hydrogen Peroxide fogging
- Ozone fogging
- Ionisation
- Chemical Fogging
Chemical fogging is carried out by dispensing a fine mist or fog of disinfectant solution till the air inside the area is supersaturated with the mist. This results in formation of an even coating of solution on every surface of the area or the room and the air filling up with the disinfectant. The duration of the treatment depends upon the size and dimension of the room or area to be disinfected. However, a professional provider of fogging services in Ipswich or elsewhere will typically take about 30 to 60 minutes to conduct the disinfection.
Vaporized Hydrogen Peroxide (VHP) Fogging
This is another extremely popular disinfectant fogging method that is generally used in clinics, hospitals and other medical settings. This method is more or less similar to the chemical fogging method, with one extra step of dehumidifying the area or the room. Thus, this process takes a bit longer than the previous method, and would last 2 to 4 hours. This fogging process is generally followed by aerating the air for rendering the room to make it safe to use.
Ozone Fogging
Ozone is an extremely reactive compound, which is produced by the passage of air through any high energy source like UV light. Thus, to treat an area or room with the help of ozone, the professionals offering fogging services in Milton would humidify the area before generating ozone. And they aerate the rooms with clean air following the treatment. However, this method is averted if the space or the room that is disinfected contains zinc, copper and iron surfaces. Also, the aerating of the space has to be perfect and comprehensive, as ozone is detrimental to health.
Chlorine dioxide (ClO₂) Fogging
This is another very popular type of disinfectant fogging, as this Chlorine dioxide disintegrates into nothing but harmless salt. However, there are certain strict humidity and temperature maintenance precautions that have to be maintained as Chlorine dioxide is a pretty unstable chemical.
Ionisation fogging
This process of fogging involves allowing air to pass over ionized tubes for the creation of charged ions, which then find out the naturally charged airborne microorganisms and neutralize them. Disinfection is done by releasing a controlled amount of negative and positive ions.
