Dry Vapor Treatment
Ascent Odor Remediation employs a distinctive dry vapor method that effectively eliminates odors in your home or vehicle. Our specialized ingredient, chlorine dioxide, specifically targets organic odor molecules in the air and on surfaces. When chlorine dioxide binds with an odor-causing molecule, both are neutralized, resulting in a minimal residue of harmless sodium chloride, or table salt. This process ensures a thorough and environmentally friendly odor removal solution.

How to Prepare
Prior to the dry vapor treatment, ensure that all family members, pets, and plants are evacuated from the house for approximately 24 hours (only a few hours are necessary for vehicles). Although the residue left after treatment is harmless to your family and pets, it takes time for chlorine dioxide to disperse. Our odor remediators wear respirators during the initial application, and you will not be permitted to reenter until the process is finished.

Fogging
In order to fully address the odor, it might be required to use a secondary fogging treatment after the initial dry vapor treatment. Alternatively, fogging treatment can be used independently for less intense odor issues. Our dedicated fogging devices produce a damp vapor infused with chlorine dioxide, which effectively locates and eliminates odors at their origin.

How to Prepare
Just like our dry vapor treatment, fogging necessitates the evacuation of all family members, pets, and plants from the premises. This method efficiently eradicates odors and eliminates 99.99 percent of odor-causing bacteria and viruses within a span of approximately three hours.

Chlorine Dioxide Detergent
Ascent Odor Remediation offers a unique detergent containing chlorine dioxide to effectively eliminate deep-set odors in carpeting and subflooring. To further enhance the treatment, dry vapor treatment, fogging, or a combination of both methods can be used, depending on the intensity of the odor.
