Spring cleaning gets plenty of attention, but Zerorez Austin says fall may be the perfect time to hit the reset button at home.
Zerorez Austin owner Brad McKee joined Sierra Waggoner on We Are Austin for a live cleaning demonstration, revealing just how much dirt can be hiding in surfaces that look clean and sharing ways to refresh your home ahead of the holiday season.
Zerorez Austin owner Brad McKee joined Sierra Waggoner on We Are Austin for a live cleaning demonstration, revealing just how much dirt can be hiding in surfaces that look clean and sharing ways to refresh your home ahead of the holiday season.
“This is my favorite time of year to clean,” McKee said. “We’re getting ready for the holidays.”
With cooler temperatures on the way and more time spent at home, McKee said fall provides a great opportunity to tackle the dirt and grime that has built up throughout the year.
Your carpet may be dirtier than it looks
A carpet or piece of furniture can look perfectly clean while still holding onto plenty of unwanted debris.
“Your carpet and your upholstery, they’re the biggest filter in your house,” McKee said.
McKee put that idea to the test live on We Are Austin, using a cloth to demonstrate what could be pulled from a piece of studio furniture that appeared clean at first glance.
Much like an air filter collects particles moving through the home, carpet fibers can catch what is circulating through the air and what gets tracked inside.

“We get used to it because we live on it every day,” McKee said.
Body oils, dander, pets and everyday life can all contribute to the buildup over time.
How the Zerorez cleaning process works
McKee also demonstrated the Zerorez cleaning system and explained what sets the company’s process apart.
“We make what we call Zr Water,” McKee said. “It cuts through grease and grime better than soap does, but when it dries, it’s not sticky or crunchy.”

The process uses a powerful truck-mounted system and carpet-cleaning wand to rinse and extract dirt from the fibers.
McKee said the cleaned carpet typically dries in about four to six hours, allowing homeowners to get back to using the space relatively quickly.
Another difference, he said, is the absence of a heavy chemical or shampoo-like odor after the cleaning.

More than carpets
Zerorez Austin’s services extend throughout the home.
The team cleans rugs, upholstery, tile and grout, countertops and air ducts, in addition to carpets. Zerorez also provides commercial cleaning services for businesses and larger properties.
“We make what we call Zr Water,” McKee said. “It cuts through grease and grime better than soap does, but when it dries, it’s not sticky or crunchy.”
McKee refers to a home’s air ducts as its “lungs” because of the amount of air constantly moving through the system.
“It’s a gathering place for dust and dander,” McKee said.
He compared cleaning air ducts to tackling dust that accumulates on hard-to-reach surfaces throughout a home.
McKee said customers often tell him they notice a difference after having their ducts cleaned.
