| Pet Odor Removal We love our pets, but pet urine can cause permanent damage to your office’s floors and fabrics. It can also create an unhealthy indoor environment. When urine is first deposited onto a floor or fabric, it has a pH of about 5 or 6, which is on the acid side of the pH Scale. It is easier to remove right then when it is fresh. Once it dries it turns into an “alkaline” or to a high pH between 10 to 12 on the scale and becomes more difficult to remove. The warm acid state of the urine offers a perfect breeding ground for bacteria, which begin to flourish almost immediately. Other cleaners use pet odor to “gouge” customers. At Hansen Steam Way, odor treatment is included (for on-location carpet cleaning). This treatment is a minor odor treatment and is not guaranteed to remove the odor, however, in most cases, it will significantly reduce the odor. For more severe cases, you may consider having us do a more thorough treatment. |
