ThermaPureHeat® from Alliance Environmental Also Kills Bugs
High
temperatures eliminate termites, beetles, roaches, ants, rodents, scorpions,
and other pests, without chemicals. Heat is an ecological and technological breakthrough in treating structures
like single family homes, apartments, condominiums, hotels, hospitals, nursing
facilities, medical laboratories, offices and industrial complexes.
Heat can be used to treat entire structures, confined areas, or for localized,
spot treatment.
Rid Your Home, Apartment, Hotel or Dwelling of Pests, Without Harmful
Chemicals.
Heat is the only non-chemical method to successfully treat entire structures.
Other non-chemical methods such as Freezing, Electrogun and Microwave may
be effective in small areas, but cannot treat entire structures in
one application. With ThermaPureHeat®, we can treat large areas, small
areas or entire structures with a single application in only six to eight
hours. No three-day move-outs.
Your structure is safe to enter immediately after treatment.
Our trained service technicians use specially designed heaters. The Heat
flows through flexible ducting to the designated treatment areas and is confined
by thermal drapes. Inside temperatures are monitored by state-of-the-art
digital thermometers and needle thin temperature probes to ensure that wood
core temperatures are maintained at levels which are lethal to wood destroying
insects.
Heat is more effective than other non-chemical methods.
Why you’ll prefer ThermaPureHeat® over fumigation
No toxic chemicals
No three day move out
No odor
No bagging of food
No harm to people & pets
Fewer neighbors complaining
Heat sensitive items need protection
Large heat sensitive objects like TVs, stereos and computers are protected
by special thermal blankets. Items such as plants, artwork, candles, plastics,
software, DVDs and CDs are temporarily removed from the treatment area.

Kill Drywood Termites with ThermaPureHeat®
Termites are very destructive to any structure. The threat termites pose
to a structure are real and ignoring this pest and others can be costly.
Termites can be hidden for 10 to 12 years before a swarm becomes visible,
A small colony can devour a linear foot of a 2-by-4 in five months.
According to the California Department of Consumer Affairs the only two effective
methods for total whole-house eradication are fumigation and heat. The
ability for heat to penetrate inside of wood to kill dry wood termites makes
the ThermaPureHeat® process an effective non-chemical tool for wholestructure
eradication of these pests.
Kill Cockroaches with ThermaPureHeat®
Cockroaches can be a problem in any dwelling that prepares and stores food
items. Cockroaches contaminate food items, cooking and eating utensils. They
destroy paper goods and fabrics, and spread disease. German cockroaches can
transmit Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, the hepatitis virus, and coli form
bacteria.
They can also spread typhoid and dysentery. The German cockroach will mainly
inhabit any area where food preparation occurs and bathrooms, because they
favor to be in warm, humid areas that are close to food and water. The German
cockroach reproduces the fastest, producing an egg case that carries as many
as 30 young every few weeks. The ThermaPureHeat® process is effective in
stopping the spread of cockroach populations.
“Increased immigration from developing nations and international
travel both have sparked the bedbug resurgence. It also discusses how they
don’t just live in mattresses and box springs, but rather “any
wall or floor crack the thickness of a playing card can accommodate a bedbug.”
- New York Times 11/27/2005
Kill Dust Mites and Bed Bugs with ThermaPureHeat®
Dust mites and bed bugs are most commonly found in almost all textiles including
mattresses, pillows, and quilts. They are common household scavengers that
feed off of nutrients found in household dust, human skin cells, and pet dander.
The ThermaPureHeat® process has a unique advantage in handling dust mites
and their related allergens. The process raising the core temperature of the
structure to the necessary 140°F. The heat process is accompanied
by HEPA vacuuming and air scrubbers which will remove any airborne and dust
residing allergens.
Another benefit of the ThermaPureHeat® process is its ability to spot
treat specific areas infested with dust mites. The process can kill them in
your entire structure or it can just treat your mattresses and drapes. Kill
the mites and bed bugs that hide deep in your pillows, mattresses, and drapes
letting you breathe easier with greatly improved indoor air quality.
Kill Rodents with ThermaPureHeat®
Rodents are a major problem for structures and their occupants. They
can cause physical harm to structures, attract other pests, and spread many
of the 200 known diseases which they carry. ThermaPureHeat® is a
natural choice for removing rodents from a structure and for killing the diseases
they may leave behind.
Rodents are notorious for causing damage to a structure and your valuable
contents. They build nests behind walls and in attics where they store
caches of food which may attract other pests into the structure. Their
tooth structure causes rodents to gnaw on items, including furniture, electronic
wiring and equipment, and clothing, in order to wear down their teeth.
Rodents are notorious for spreading many diseases including, but not limited
to: plague, typhus, salmonella food poisoning, tularemia, endemic relapsing
fever, and Rocky Mountain spotted fever.
How Is ThermaPureHeat® Implemented?
Clean, dry heat, is introduced to the bedroom or building and the inside air
is slowly raised to a safe “sauna-like temperature”. To
ensure that the temperatures of 140-150ºF are maintained for a kill
of targeted organisms, state-of-the-art digital thermometers monitor inside
ambient, surface, and core temperatures. This heating process penetrates
cracks and crevices to kill bed bugs larvae, adults and eggs. Additionally
the process kills inaccessible mold and bacteria for a higher level of cleanliness.
It’s Just Heat from Alliance Environmental
Since no toxic chemicals are used, our technicians can enter and monitor the
treated area. No harmful residues to contaminate the air or surfaces.
It’s just Heat.
The Experts Agree…
Disinfect Buildings With Heat.
“The heating process provided an effective non-chemical alternative
to conventional pest control”
