The VaPURE™ technology Pure Maintenance of Southern California uses has been studied by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and tested in independent GLP-compliant laboratories. Below are the two studies that underpin the work we do in your home — with links to each PDF.
Two independent works document the technology Pure Maintenance of Southern California deploys: a multi-month field test by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and a compilation of GLP-compliant independent laboratory efficacy reports. Skip ahead, or read each in order below.
A six-month evaluation by the Army's Engineer Research and Development Center of the VaPURE™ application system on two occupied buildings at Fort Campbell, Kentucky — measuring both initial efficacy and long-term recurrence.
The U.S. Army needed a way to remediate mold inside occupied barracks without removing structural materials or relocating soldiers. The Engineer Research and Development Center evaluated the application system across two buildings and compared spore counts before treatment, immediately after, and again six months later.
The headline result — a sustained 95%+ reduction in spore counts at the six-month mark — is what makes this study load-bearing. Day-one efficacy is common across mold treatments; verified durability is rare. The fact that those reductions held over half a year, in occupied buildings, without retreatment, is the part of the report that does the most work.
The full ERDC technical report is hosted publicly by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers digital library.
A compiled set of GLP-compliant independent laboratory tests of the peracetic acid treatment against mold targets — the underlying chemistry behind the Pure Maintenance of Southern California VaPURE™ process.
"Good Laboratory Practice" is the methodological standard regulators apply to safety and efficacy studies — the same rigour used to evaluate pharmaceuticals. This compilation aggregates a series of independent GLP-compliant lab tests of peracetic acid, the chemistry that powers the VaPURE™ treatment we deploy in your home.
The headline finding is a Log-6+ reduction of mold targets under controlled laboratory conditions. Laboratory results describe the chemistry itself; in a home, the treatment acts on the hard, non-porous surfaces it reaches.
The compilation is hosted publicly and includes the methodology, organisms tested, and individual lab reports.
The first step is a free telephone consultation with a specialist. It helps you understand why you have mold, the causes, and what can be done about it — including Pure Maintenance of Southern California services, availability, and pricing.
