Did you know that the idea of cleaning for health isn’t new? In fact, it dates back to the 19th century during the Victorian era, when scientists and doctors began understanding how germs spread and how critical hygiene was to preventing disease. This shift in thinking laid the foundation for modern public health.

By the 20th century, the conversation turned indoors. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and health professionals began to realize that indoor air quality (IAQ) could have serious consequences on human health. Dust, pet dander, mold spores, chemical pollutants and fine particles were identified as contributors to allergies, asthma and chronic respiratory problems.
