Car odor removal is more than just covering up bad smells with air fresheners. It’s a science that involves finding and removing odor causing particles at the source. Whether it’s from food spills, pet accidents, smoke residue or mold growth, these odors can get trapped in your car’s upholstery, carpet and ventilation system and create an uncomfortable driving experience.
Living with car odors isn’t just about the bad smells. Bad odors can affect your car’s resale value and make passengers uncomfortable. These lingering odors often mean there’s bacteria or mold present which can cause headaches or allergic reactions. If left untreated these problems will get worse over time.
Our Odor Elimination Process
Step 1: Deep Interior Detailing
We start with a deep interior detailing. This includes a complete vacuum removal of all debris and particles and cleaning of all surfaces including hard to reach areas. We remove floor mats and clean underneath them, nothing is left untouched. Our detailing extends to all interior panels and surfaces including air vents where odor causing particles hide.
Step 2: Professional Steam Cleaning
Our high temperature steam cleaning system is key to odor elimination. The process reaches temperatures above 170°F to kill bacteria and germs and penetrate deep into fabrics and upholstery. This breaks down organic matter causing odors and removes embedded stains that can cause smells. The steam sanitizes surfaces without harsh chemicals and treats headliners and door panels.
Step 3: Advanced Ozone Treatment
The final step uses professional grade ozone treatment. Ozone molecules (O₃) break down odor causing compounds at a molecular level, where traditional cleaning can’t reach. Unlike air fresheners this treatment eliminates not masks odors. The ozone reaches through the entire ventilation system and provides long lasting results when administered by our professionals.
