In the realm of professional cleaning methods, DOFF cleaning has gained significant recognition for its effectiveness in removing dirt, grime, and organic matter from various surfaces.
This innovative technique utilises the power of superheated water to achieve remarkable results.
It’s a service that Vinci Response often uses.
In this blog post, we will explore what DOFF cleaning is, how it works, and its key benefits in restoring the appearance of surfaces.
So, let’s dive in and discover the wonders of DOFF cleaning.
What is DOFF Cleaning?
DOFF cleaning is a specialised cleaning method that employs a unique system known as the DOFF system.
It is particularly effective for the deep cleaning of building exteriors, stonework, brickwork, concrete, and delicate surfaces such as monuments and statues.
The DOFF system combines high-temperature superheated water and low-pressure techniques to achieve remarkable cleaning results without causing any damage to the treated surfaces.
How Does DOFF Cleaning Work?
The DOFF cleaning system projects a controlled stream of superheated water onto the targeted surface.
The water is heated to temperatures reaching 150 degrees Celsius, ensuring the effective removal of dirt, algae, moss, fungi, and other contaminants.
Unlike traditional pressure washing methods that rely solely on high-pressure jets, DOFF cleaning utilises the powerful combination of high temperature and low pressure.
The superheated water penetrates deeply into the porous surface, breaking down and dislodging even the most stubborn dirt and pollutants.
As the superheated water becomes steam upon contact with the surface, it expands, gently lifting away the ingrained impurities. The low-pressure application prevents any damage to the delicate surfaces and minimises the risk of water ingress, preserving the structural integrity of the treated area.
