· INTERIM CLEANING 6,000 sq-ft of high traffic carpet flooring in the Administrative building.

This type of cleaning is a fast high-volume process that is used in between restorative cleanings. One of the following methods needs to be picked by the sub-contractor and approved by the CO. Low Moisture Extraction, a cleaning system that uses encapsulates that dry to a crystalline state and can be removed by vacuuming. Low Moisture Compound Cleaning is a cleaning technique that applies highly absorbent material onto the carpet face and is then agitated into the carpet and allowed to dry. The cleaning compound and soiling debris are then removed by thorough vacuuming. Dry Foam cleaning is conducted by a machine applying a foaming chemical onto the upper surface of the carpet and then removing the chemical and soil contaminants that were captured by the foam. All of these systems dry very quickly and cause less intrusion in an interior space than Restorative cleaning.

This type of cleaning will only take place in hallways and conference rooms (high traffic areas). Individual offices and cubicles are not included in this square footage.

· RESTORATIVE CLEANING 23,635 sq-ft of carpet flooring in the Administrative building Hot Water Extraction is the preferred method of cleaning. This method is proven to be the most effective means of removing entrapped soil and other residues. This method does require effort and will take some time to dry. Use air movement systems and the HVAC system to aid in drying time. Require that all systems used on carpet be approved under the Carpet and Rug Institutes Seal of Approval Program. Also prefers that all equipment be at least a Silver Level cleaning system. Carpet should only be cleaned by trained technicians.

Never mix “In-Tank” solutions at greater the recommended concentrations. The most effective cleaning method by hot water extraction employs a pre-spray chemistry coupled with agitation. Always thoroughly rinse any detergents from the carpet with water only as to impede accelerated soiling. If detergent residue or build up exists, clean the carpet with hot water only.

The use of a pile lifter will help to remove embedded soil and sandy particulate. It will also help to erect the pile fiber and renew the appearance of the carpet. Use of a pile lifter in funnel areas, walk off areas, and around elevators will enhance the appearance of the carpet.

E. ANNUAL SERVICES:

1. Vacuum and spot removal on all office space wall partitions using only recommended cleaning compounds specific to the woven fabric wall covering.

2. Upholstered furniture shall be vacuumed and bases dusted with a cloth and cleaning solution appropriate for the upholstered furniture.
