ThermaPureHeat® does many things. One important process is that it applies the theories of pasteurization to structures. Pasteurization dates back to the mid-1800s with the concepts applied by Louis Pasteur. Pasteur determined that by heating food products to a temperature of approximately 60ºC (140ºF) for several minutes, bacteria, viruses, protozoa, molds and yeasts in the food would be reduced to levels that would no longer cause spoilage to the food or be harmful to the health of the consumer. Pasteurization improved shelf-life of food products and more importantly, provided reduced levels of contamination allowing for safe consumption without damaging the food product. Today, ThermaPureHeat® uses the same principles for structures. Structural pasteurization is a process in which the temperature of a building or portion of a building is increased to a level that will reduce the targeted organisms to acceptable levels while minimizing damage to the structure. This is the basis for ThermaPureHeat®.
