With Thermo
Accelerated Nano Crystal
Sanitation (TANCS®), our proprietary technology uses the naturally occurring minerals in tap water to form crystals. As these crystals pass through the boiler they gain energy from the heat. Then, when the water transforms into super-heated low-moisture steam, these energized crystals are accelerated along with the steam. This process helps disrupt the cell membrane, allowing lethal temperatures to quickly destroy the germs. This activity is confined to the surface being treated or cleaned and is lethal for germs and yet safe for you!
With the TANCS®
option, the system qualifies as a disinfection
device
for the US EPA*, in addition to extending the life of the
entire system.
This is not your grandmother’s clean—The
case against bleach.
- Carcinogenic
- Oxidizes metals and destroys
stainless steel, degrades grout & concrete
- Ineffective if used on dirty
surfaces
- Rapidly degrades in sunlight
and hot water, losing effectiveness
- Most bleach products are not
EPA-registered disinfectants
- Is suspected to cause problems
with fertility for chemically-sensitive humans
and
pets
- Dangerous to human contact: eyes, skin, respiratory
consequences

For years, bleach (sodium
hypochlorite) has been mistakenly associated
with an
absolutely clean and disinfected surface. Today, scientists
are becoming more aware of the limitations of chemical
disinfectants
and
sanitizers.
Recent studies investigating biofilms (microbe colonies
present on many pieces of food processing equipment,
for example)
reveal that 60 minutes of exposure to bleach leaves as
many live cells as dead cells in the biofilm matrix.
This leads
to rapid recolonization of the surface.
Studies show that sufficient
heat as is present in the TANCS® steam
vapor system will travel through the biofilm and kill the
cells that are unreachable by the surface application of
a germicide. All without degrading the surface you’re
cleaning or impairing the air you’re breathing while
you’re doing it!
Benefits of TANCS®
technology:
- Results are dramatic and virtually
immediate.
- Because the process is so effective,
results last longer between cleanings.
- Steam vapor reaches into microscopic
pores where topical chemical applications and scrubbing
would never reach.
- Savings in time and effort.
- Simplification of cleaning protocols—
no disinfectant mixing, storage, disposal concerns,
lengthy dwell time requirements, or confusing label
directions.
- Elimination and control of the biofilms
that resist typical disinfectants.
- Reduced chemical exposure risks.
- Destruction of embedded bacteria and
germs that cause lingering odor with traditional cleaning
methods.
- Minerals are utilized by TANCS®
instead of building up on internal components. The resulting
elimination of scale allows for an extended warranty
on the steam boiler.
- Disinfecting powers reach far beyond
what you can see.
Add
TANCS® to your dry steam vapor system and add
five years to your boiler warranty! TANCS® also prevents scale buildup in the boiler due to changes imparted to the minerals in the above process. No scaling maintains the heating efficiency within the boiler and extends the life of the system. |
