| Heat Treatment Information |
After a complete Therma Pure Termite or Pest Inspection has been made and the bid has been accepted by the owner of the area to be treated, the treatment can begin. A certified Therma Pure technician will introduce heat into the area using specifically designated and EPA regulated heaters. The heat flows through mylar ducting into the treatment area and is confined by tarps or thermal blankets. Heat temperatures are measured through state-of-the-art digital thermometers and needle thin temperature probes. These probes can be used to measure heat inside wood framing for wood destroying organisms, ambient air temperatures for pantry pest and inside heat sensitive items to make sure temperatures never rise to a damaging degree.
In theory, heat can be used on all pests. However, pests that are currently being treated are as follows: Drywood Termites, Powder Post Beetles, Carpenter Ants, Pantry Pests, Carpet Beetles, other wood destroy organisms, Bed Bugs and Paper Wasps. Heat is an ecological and technological breakthrough in treating entire or partial structures like single family homes, apartments, condominiums, hospitals, schools, industrial offices and complexes. In the near future, heat will also be used agriculturally in some situations for stored food products in place of chemicals. More tests are being made every day by companies that use heat and these results are freely shared through the industry so possibilities are endless where Heat can be used. The requirement for a successful Therma Pure treatment is basic but very important. First and most important is the inspection report. Without a complete and thorough report, we are limited to only what has been inspected and other infested areas could be missed. All areas that are accessible must be checked to be sure all infestations are found. Some of the benefits of using the Therma Pure Heat Treatment are that there is no move out, no odor, no roof damage, you do not have go bag food or medicine, there is no harm to plants or animals and most treatments can be completed in 6 to 8 hours.
