Expansion and Coverage:
Purify Air has experienced remarkable growth over the years. Starting with only six franchisees five years ago, the company has expanded to an impressive 24 franchisees nationwide, covering various regions throughout Australia. From the Gold Coast in Queensland to Perth in Western Australia, and even to Adelaide and Canberra, Purify Air's coverage extends across the country, ensuring clean air for countless homes and businesses.
Comprehensive Services Offered:
While air conditioner cleaning remains Purify Air's core business, we offer much more than just that. Purify Air Con Cleaning goes beyond air conditioning cleaning maintenance and offers Mould Mediation services, effectively addressing surface and spot Mould issues. Furthermore, our company specialises in Anti Mould, Bacterial and Virus Fogging, which plays a crucial role in our Mould eradication process and helps combat prevalent health concerns like COVID-19 and respiratory issues.
The Importance of Maintaining a Clean and Healthy Aircon:
Purify Air emphasised the significance of maintaining clean and healthy air conditioning systems due to the amount of time people spend indoors, especially breathing air-conditioned air. Whether at home, in the office, or even at the movies, the air we breathe has a significant impact on our overall well-being. This realisation highlights the importance of regular professional cleaning and maintenance to ensure optimal air quality.
Deep Clean: What Does It Entail?
Purify Air's main focus is the deep cleaning of all types of air con units, both residential and commercial using a thorough process that involves removing the covers, washing them separately, treating and physically scrubbing all internal components of the air conditioning unit followed by a light pressure wash to flush out all the dirt, mould and foreign matter into a bag so there is no mess, sanitise the entire unit, reassembly and test. Purify Air check the external unit with attention given to the cleanliness of the coil and the insulation on the copper pipes to maximise efficiency and help lower your energy costs.
The Risks of DIY Cleaning and the Value of Professionals:
While some individuals may attempt DIY air conditioning cleaning, Greg highlighted the limitations of such efforts. A simple wipe with a wet rag or a spray of disinfectant is not sufficient to achieve a thorough clean. Purify Air emphasises the importance of professional expertise, with trained technicians who know how to reach inaccessible areas and properly sanitize the unit, ensuring customers receive a comprehensive service.
Understanding the Prevalence of Mould in Air Conditioning:
Greg explained why mould is often prevalent in air conditioning systems. Mould requires moisture, heat, and poor light to thrive, and when air conditioners are turned off, the residual moisture in the system combined with the rise of the ambient temperature creates an ideal environment for mould growth. Factors such as dirt and dust contribute further to this issue by offering a base for the mould to latch onto. If left unaddressed, mould can negatively impact air quality and lead to various health problems, including coughing, throat irritation, and fatigue.
Health Implications and Energy Efficiency:
The health implications of mouldy air conditioners can be severe, causing symptoms like coughing, throat irritation, and general malaise. Neglecting air conditioning cleaning can result in increased sick leave and decreased productivity in offices and schools. Additionally, dirty air conditioners compromise energy efficiency, leading to higher power bills and potentially shortening the lifespan of the unit costing $1000s in unnecessary replacement costs.
Benefits of Professional Cleaning and Pricing:
The advantage of hiring professionals from Purify Air Con Cleaning is the company takes pride in being a national brand with fully insured and well-trained technicians who offer prompt and polite service. Purify Air have the knowledge and skills and equipment to access hard-to-reach areas you can't reach so their customers can enjoy clean air and a healthier living or working environment. Purify Air's franchisees determine their pricing, ensuring competitiveness and reflecting the local market conditions.
The Importance of Mould Mediation and Fogging:
Addressing mould issues proactively is essential for maintaining a healthy living or working space. Purify Air offers a two-part mould mediation process that effectively tackles existing mould and provides a *12-month guarantee. Purify Air first remove the visual Mould and then use their Fogging process using an Australian-made product to eradicate mould and create a protective barrier on hard and soft surfaces. Fogging not only kills mould on contact but also bonds to the surface preventing its recurrence for up to *12 months ensuring long-lasting results.

The Continual Relevance of Air Conditioning Cleaning in the Post-COVID Era:
Though people may have shifted their focus away from COVID-19, Greg emphasised the continued prevalence and risks associated with the virus. Purify Air Con Cleaning recognises the importance of maintaining clean and sanitised air conditioning systems to combat the spread of COVID-19 and other harmful bacteria.
Whether in residential or commercial settings, regularly sanitising air conditioners contributes to a safe and healthy environment for all.
