Valentine's Day Has Come Early!!!

Dear Valued Zerorez Client, I’ll make this short and sweet.  No one cleans tile and grout as well as Zerorez can with our high pH alkaline, soap-free process.  As you know, mopping your floor just moves the dirt around, it does not extract it. Zerorez can make your tile and grout look amazing by extracting the dirt and grime hiding deep in the grout texture.  Two Examples of Zerorez Tile and Grout Cleaning For the first time ever we are offering up to 66% off our regular tile and grout cleaning price to introduce you to this great service.  This is a real discount, not based on an inflated price the way some other companies market their services. Want proof? We usually charge $1.00 per square foot for tile and grout cleaning, and we almost never discount our price for this service. We want to introduce more people to cleaning tile and grout with our empowered water, so right now we are offering three areas (up to 200 sq ft each) of carpet or tile cleaned for just $199, and you can mix and match areas.  Call 949-387-2222 today for this special offer. If you cleaned 600 feet of tile our price would normally be $600, but for this limited time it is only $199! That is an honest 66% savings from our regular price. You must call by February 15th to get this special offer, and the work must be scheduled by February 28th.  Grout sealing is extra, and areas in excess of 600 sq ft will be charged at our regular price. No other specials will be accepted with this offer, and there is an $11 fuel surcharge for all appointments.  Hurry and call to get this deal before our routes fill up. Call 949-387-2222 and ask for the $199 carpet and tile special, or visit us on www.zerorezsocal.com.  Be sure to “like” us on Facebook and get a $10 credit on your next clean.  And remember, we are still "the guys that drink the water!"

The Power of Empowered Water

What is the hype behind alkaline water?  Can dirty carpet truly get clean by using "just water?"  Here is a little of what our website has to say on the matter.

"Zerorez cleaning services are based on our unique EMPOWERED WATER™ technology. EMPOWERED WATER™ is enhanced water that is electrolyzed and oxidized to create a powerful cleaning solution without harmful toxins or chemicals. It is so safe that you can drink it, children and pets can lie on the carpet as soon as it dries, and individuals with allergies or chemical sensitivities won’t have to worry about unpleasant reactions to harmful chemicals or cleaning agents. Other companies that claim to be “green” are using chemicals they claim are non-toxic. That is a far cry from our technology, which uses high pH alkaline water to clean with, both more effective than the “green chemical” guys, and so pure the technician can drink the solution before he cleans with it."

Here is an excerpt from a Los Angeles Times article dated February 23, 2009, entitled "Simple Elixir called a 'miracle liquid.'"

"It’s a kitchen degreaser. It’s a window cleaner. It kills athlete’s foot. Oh, and you can drink it.

Sounds like the old “Saturday Night Live” gag for Shimmer, the faux floor polish plugged by Gilda Radner. But the elixir is real. It has been approved by U.S. regulators. And it’s starting to replace the toxic chemicals Americans use at home and on the job.

The stuff is a simple mixture of table salt and tap water whose ions have been scrambled with an electric current. Researchers have dubbed it electrolyzed water — hardly as catchy as Mr. Clean. But at the Sheraton Delfina in Santa Monica, some hotel workers are calling it el liquido milagroso — the miracle liquid.

That’s as good a name as any for a substance that scientists say is powerful enough to kill anthrax spores without harming people or the environment.

Used as a sanitizer for decades in Russia and Japan, it’s slowly winning acceptance in the United States. A New York poultry processor uses it to kill salmonella on chicken carcasses. Minnesota grocery clerks spray sticky conveyors in the checkout lanes. Michigan jailers mop with electrolyzed water to keep potentially lethal cleaners out of the hands of inmates.

In Santa Monica, the once-skeptical Sheraton housekeeping staff has ditched skin-chapping bleach and pungent ammonia for spray bottles filled with electrolyzed water to clean toilets and sinks.

“I didn’t believe in it at first because it didn’t have foam or any scent,” said housekeeper Flor Corona. “But I can tell you it works. My rooms are clean.”

Management likes it too. The mixture costs less than a penny a gallon. It cuts down on employee injuries from chemicals. It reduces shipping costs and waste because hotel staffers prepare the elixir on site. And it’s helping the Sheraton Delfina tout its environmental credentials to guests.

The hotel’s kitchen staff recently began disinfecting produce with electrolyzed water. They say the lettuce lasts longer. They’re hoping to replace detergent in the dishwasher. Management figures the payback time for the $10,000 electrolysis machine will be less than a year.

“It’s green. It saves money. And it’s the right thing to do,” said Glenn Epstein, executive assistant at the Sheraton Delfina. “It’s almost like fantasy.”

Actually, it’s chemistry. For more than two centuries, scientists have tinkered with electrolysis, the use of an electric current to bring about a chemical reaction (not the hair-removal technique of the same name that’s popular in Beverly Hills). That’s how we got metal electroplating and large-scale production of chlorine, used to bleach and sanitize.

It turns out that zapping salt water with low-voltage electricity creates a couple of powerful yet nontoxic cleaning agents. Sodium ions are converted into sodium hydroxide, an alkaline liquid that cleans and degreases like detergent, but without the scrubbing bubbles. Chloride ions become hypochlorous acid, a potent disinfectant known as acid water.

“It’s 10 times more effective than bleach in killing bacteria,” said Yen-Con Hung, a professor of food science at the University of Georgia-Griffin, who has been researching electrolyzed water for more than a decade. 'And it’s safe.'”

If you remain unconvinced about the cleaning properties of alkaline water, please call our Zerorez and let us show you what we can do.
