Chem-Dry Bolsters Healthy Home Mission with Expansion of Services

Nashville Chem-Dry, the world’s leading carpet and upholstery cleaning franchise, has announced it is broadening its robust service lineup to include cleaning of wood floors, commercial vinyl composition tile (VCT), dryer vent and air ducts. The exciting additions all come as part of Chem-Dry’s commitment to create healthier homes and work places worldwide.

All launched within the last year, the additional services offer consumers an environmentally-friendly, non-toxic, deep cleaning experience similar to what they have already come to know and trust from Chem-Dry and its renowned carpet cleaning services. Further benefits of the new offerings include reduced risks such as fire from clogged dryer vents, energy savings through improved air flow in ducts, health benefits such as removal of allergens and bacteria. The full scope of new services includes:

  • Wood Floor Cleaning: Newly-introduced, the wood floor cleaning process combines cleaning, sanitizing and polishing to provide a deep clean and renew the beautiful look to not only solid hardwood and engineered wood floors but also luxury vinyl tile (LVT) type flooring. Overall, the service helps to eliminate dirt, grime, allergens from pets and pollen, smoke, and bacteria from surfaces while also preventing further damage and protecting the investment in wood floors.
  • VCT Cleaning: The expansion into VCT cleaning services now allows Chem-Dry to remove dirt, dust and allergens from all types of commercial areas. This also allows franchisees to be more of a full-service provider in cleaning commercial floors and other common surfaces.
  • Dryer Vent Cleaning: The Chem-Dry professional dryer vent cleaning service uses specialized equipment including cameras and powerful extraction equipment to completely clean your dryer vents. By clearing and cleaning the vent, this process helps reduce potential fire hazards, mold growth and carbon monoxide seepage.
  • Air Duct Cleaning: Utilizing a Negative Air system, which meets the National Air Duct Cleaning Association’s high standards for healthy impact, Chem-Dry now offers air duct cleaning that pressure-seals the system while cleaning is occurring. This means the contaminants being removed have no chance to enter the home or building’s air flow, leaving the indoor air circulating in the space cleaner and healthier.

“We are all concerned with the overall well-being of our homes and work spaces and, even more so, our families and employees who are most impacted. That is why at Chem-Dry we are always seeking ways to help create cleaner, healthier spaces - whether that be at work or home,” said Dan Tarantin, President and CEO of HRI, parent company of Chem-Dry. “We have a long-standing tradition of and commitment to innovation and our R&D team has done an excellent job of rolling out industry-leading solutions and processes for these additional services, which are perfectly aligned with our healthy home initiative.
