Service Spotlight: Ozone Treatment and Fogging
Learn about ozone treatment and fogging and whether it could be right for your business.
When it comes to keeping your workplace or tenanted properties safe and hygienic, surface cleaning is only part of the equation. Our ozone treatment and fogging services go further, tackling airborne pathogens, lingering odours, and hard-to-reach areas to deliver a deeper, sanitising clean.
In this blog post, the team at ServiceMaster Clean Devon explain how these treatments work and when they could be beneficial to your organisation.
What is ozone treatment?
Ozone (O₃) is a natural gas that acts as a highly effective oxidiser. When released into a space under controlled conditions, it attacks and neutralises airborne bacteria, viruses, mould, and odours. It’s ideal for reaching areas that traditional cleaning methods can’t access.
Ozone treatment can be used to sanitise all indoor spaces, including:
- Rental properties
- Hotels and holiday lets
- Nurseries and educational establishments
- Toilets and washrooms
- Changing rooms or leisure facilities
What is fogging?
Fogging involves dispersing a fine mist of professional-grade disinfectant into the air, coating surfaces evenly and reaching areas inaccessible to traditional cleaning methods. It’s fast, efficient, and perfect for regular hygiene maintenance or infection control.
When might you use these services?
Ozone treatment and fogging are helpful in the following situations:
- Deep cleaning and sanitisation: To thoroughly clean and disinfect a property, such as in a void property situation.
- Infection control: To minimise the spread of infections in high-risk environments.
- Odour removal: To eliminate unpleasant odours caused by smoke, sewage, mould, or other sources.
- Cleanup and restoration: To restore a property after a fire or flood.
Why use these services?
The benefits of ozone treatment and fogging include:
- Kills 99.99% of known viruses and bacteria
- Penetrates soft furnishings, vents, and airspaces
- Neutralises rather than masks persistent odours
- Minimal disruption to your business
- Safe for use in a wide range of commercial and residential environments
Whether you’re looking to deep clean between tenants, prepare for a property handover, or respond to an outbreak of infection, ozone and fogging treatments offer total peace of mind.
Safety First
We follow strict protocols to ensure the treatment is safe, controlled, and compliant with industry standards. The premises must be vacated during treatment and ventilated afterwards, but our team will handle everything from setup to safe re-entry.
