Injection Phase
:
In this phase, the solution is aerosolized and applied evenly to the
treatment area. A typical injection phase can last anywhere from 5-30
minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area.
Dwell Phase:
Once an injection phase has completed, the treatment area is allowed to sit
for a minimum of 10 minutes in a dwell period. The dwell period gives the
aerosolized solution an opportunity to evenly distribute throughout the
treatment area, ensuring complete coverage on all surfaces.
Aeration Phase:
The aeration phase is the final stage when the treatment area is returned to
its normal habitable state. Do not re-enter the area until the air is clear
(minimum 20 minutes).
