O3 Chemicals Bio-Degreaser
O3 Chemicals has developed a multi-functional, water-based bio de-greaser.
Unlike many kerosene based degreasers, it is non carcinogenic and, in compliance
with our GOING GREEN philosophy, is safe to use.
Its high dilution rate makes it one of the most cost-effective products
of its kind. It's non-toxic, non-flammable, and safe to use in the food
industry.
Commercial uses include:
Case orders may be mixed, for example: 1 case O3 SmartAir +1 case O3 SmartFinish to make up a 2 case order. Or 1 case O3 SmartAir + 1 case O3 SmartFinish + 1 case O3 GREEN + 1 case O3 Alkaline D + 1 Case O3 Bio Degreaser for a 5 case order. Mix them as you please.

Home Uses Include:
AHUs: We have always recommended AHUs should be cleaned, and
sanitised 4 times per annum.
The first clean should be done using O3 GREEN or O3 Alkaline D in a 1:1
dilution.
Before and after air flow readings are essential to monitor the effectiveness
of the clean.
Thereafter a clean and sanitising should be done every three months using
a 1:15 dilution of either chemical.
Again air flow readings must be taken. We also strongly advocate the taking
of before and after pictures, using a smartphone or tablet.
FILTERS: Filters play an important role in reducing mould development
in an AHU or HVAC. They should always be kept in pristine condition.
AHU Filters: In line with the latest Ventilations health and
safety requirements:
38. Every employer must –
38.1 Keep the workplace well ventilated by natural or mechanical means
to reduce the SARS-CoV-2 viral load;
38.2 Where reasonably practicable, have an effective local extraction
ventilation system with high-efficiency particulate air HEPA filters, which
is regularly cleaned and maintained, and its vents do not feed back in
through open windows;
38.3 ensure that filters are cleaned and replaced in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions by a competent person.

O3 Chemicals has developed a new method of applying our chemicals
We reasoned if we could get enough pressure to penetrate right through
a coil without damaging it, we could more easily remove contaminants bearing
mould, bacteria and fungi. We tested many compressors, but always found
immediately we started spraying the chemical onto an AHU, or HVAC, the
pressure would drop alarmingly.
We finally had a breakthrough when we discovered
the latest TradeAir oil-free, silent compressors, which, unlike
ordinary compressors, maintain their set pressure throughout the length
of the clean. They have also enabled us to introduce new cleaning techniques,
which are extremely cost-effective, and far more efficient compared to
the normal method of applying the chemicals with a garden pressure pump,
and a hosepipe to rinse off. Instead they reduce cleaning times dramatically,
and enable the technicians to limit the amount of water required to rinse
off a chemical to just a few litres.
To do a first-time clean, we use a 50 litre TradeAir Twin Head silent
compressor, set at 5-bar pressure. We apply O3 Alkaline D in a 1:1 dilution.
The chemical is poured into a 1-litre paraffin spray gun attached to the
compressor. The constant pressure from the compressor will allow us to
clean right through the coil, without having to clean from the reverse
side as well. Because of this consistency, we use a far smaller quantity
of chemical. Leave the chemical on for 15 minutes.
Extremely Important: DO NOT USE A HOSEPIPE TO RINSE OFF.
A 20mm hosepipe spews out 80 litres of water per minute!
Rather pour the water into the paraffin spray gun, and rinse of at 5-bar
pressure.
Cleaning times are reduced dramatically. No mess to clean up afterwards.
You will be amazed at how little water is required – just a few litres!

Using O3 Alkaline 'D' in combination with a TradeAir 50 litre silent,
oil free compressor
your clean is a whole lot more efficient.
O3 Chemicals
now offer the TradeAir compressor as part of our programme.
While these compressors could be bought at Makro or Takealot, we place
so much importance on this method of cleaning AHUs and HVACs that We are
keen for the Contractors to recover the cost of the machines in a matter
of months, while delivering a far higher standard of cleaning for their
clients.
The TradeAir compressors can guarantee that Property Owners, and Facilities
Managers will achieve more cost-effective, and more efficient results from
their contracts.
