BON Carpet Odor Control

Carpet/Upholstery Cleaning Flyer PDF

Odors can be a problem when trapped in carpets, upholstery, and drapes. We have the answer to carpet odor control — BON, BioWorld Odor Neutralizer.

For industry-specific instructions, please click a link below.

The following dilution rates are suggested for carpet care: 

Spray Dilution Rate:

There is a variable range for dilution depending upon the severity of mal-odor.  The variable range is 1 to 1 part, 1 to 2 parts, or 1 to 3 parts water.  This rate is for BioWorld Odor Neutralizer (BON) Concentrate. 

Fog Dilution Rate:

The variable range is 2 oz. to 4 oz. BON per gallon of water depending on severity of mal-odor. 

Shampoo and/or Rinse Solution:

The variable range is ½ oz. to 4 oz. BON per gallon of water or cleaning solution. 

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Spray surface of carpet through a pump spray using spray dilution rate suggested above, then proceed to clean carpets in normal fashion adding BON Concentrate to the shampoo and/or rinse solution (see above).
  2. In many cases it will not be necessary to lift the carpet and treat the under padding and/or sub-flooring.  Before expending this labor, dampen odor spot area with BON Concentrate and using a sponge, work the product into the carpet.  An alternative is to inject with a syringe.

BON Concentrate will not damage the ionic properties of carpets.  With natural fiber oriental rugs, test with BON Concentrate on a small, unnoticeable section, and if the result is satisfactory, proceed with the cleaning process.  We recommend that only professionals trained in cleaning oriental carpets attempt to use BON Concentrate.  In many cases, it is possible through BON to restore an odor polluted rug to its potential market value.

FINAL TOUCH

Change the air conditioner filter and spray the air condition intake with BON Concentrate.

BON Guide for Carpet Care
Spray Dilution Rate:

There is a variable range for dilution depending upon the severity of mal-odor.  The variable range is 1 to 1 part, 1 to 2 parts, or 1 to 3 parts water.  This rate is for BON Concentrate. 

Fog Dilution Rate:

The variable range is 2 oz. to 4 oz. BON per gallon of water depending on severity of mal-odor. 

Shampoo and/or Rinse Solution:

The variable range is ½ oz. to 4 oz. BON per gallon of water or cleaning solution.

General Directions 
  1. Spray surface of carpet through a pump spray using spray dilution rate suggested above, then proceed to clean carpets in normal fashion adding BON concentrate to the shampoo and/or rinse solution (see above).
  1. In the event of residual mal-odor, fog BON concentrate using fog dilution rate suggested above, through a cold aerosol type portable fogger.
  1. Should residual mal-odor be present, locate urine spotted areas and make topical application of BON concentrating using the spray dilution rate suggested above.

Objective 

To increase profit by saving labor costs and to determine the most economical dilution rate for BON concentrate without extending the drying time, we recommend the above sequence, however, if mal-odor is not indicated by a close inspection of a suspect wet spot after step 1, omit step 2. 

In many cases it will not be necessary to lift the carpet and treat the under padding and/or sub flooring.  Before expending this labor, dampen odor spot area with BON concentrate and using a sponge, work the product into the carpet.  An alternative is to inject with a syringe. 

BON concentrate will not damage the ionic properties of carpets.  With natural fiber oriental rugs, test with BON concentrate on a small, unnoticeable section, and if the result is satisfactory, proceed with the cleaning process.  We recommend that only professionals trained in cleaning oriental carpets attempt to use BON concentrate.  In many cases, it is possible through BON use to restore an odor-polluted rug to its potential market value.
