My name is Reuven Noyman. My company's name
is NYC Steam Cleaning.

We're here talking about the problem that we have with
COVID-19. So right now I think we
3
00:00:28,020 --> 00:00:32,190
haven't had one phone call that's our
regular general cleaning that we do on a

regular basis. It would just went down to
just COVID-19. I mean there's really
5
00:00:36,210 --> 00:00:41,340
nothing else. We just did a building that
the doorman had it was tested positive
6
00:00:41,340 --> 00:00:45,720
for corona[virus] so we went in we sanitized
everything from the front all the way to
7
00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:50,310
the elevators the doors the hallways
everything. People are nervous and people
8
00:00:50,310 --> 00:00:55,170
are getting it the calls now are turning
into I have a case I had a case we need
9
00:00:55,170 --> 00:00:59,670
to get this clean. It was obvious that it
was gonna spread you know. Obviously
10
00:00:59,670 --> 00:01:03,750
nobody really knew how much it was going
to spread except really amazing doctors
11
00:01:03,750 --> 00:01:07,110
that are on top of it and we should
listen to them. It's a problem that I
12
00:01:07,110 --> 00:01:11,160
think we'll solve because we know what
you know COVID-19 is and it's just a
13
00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:14,280
new strand of disease that we're already
familiar with. It's part of the SARS
14
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:18,540
family. We know what it is we know how it
affects our body. We know what to do with it.
15
00:01:18,540 --> 00:01:22,619
It's just a matter of there's time
and really doing everything we need to
16
00:01:22,620 --> 00:01:23,400
do to protect us.
17
00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:00,700
I send my guys in fully protected I'm
not sending them without proper
18
00:02:00,700 --> 00:02:03,720
equipment. They're going in there fully
covered they have all the equipment that
19
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,640
they need to really be safe.
20
00:02:07,220 --> 00:02:08,760
We have a
variety of machines that we use.
21
00:02:09,420 --> 00:02:11,420
Anywhere from ulv foggers ...
22
00:02:18,260 --> 00:02:20,060
to electrostatic machines.
23
00:02:26,920 --> 00:02:31,540
To vapor steam machines, which are a
natural product with just water.
24
00:02:31,540 --> 00:02:37,420
We are a disinfecting company. This is what we
do for a living, but it's not a natural
25
00:02:37,420 --> 00:02:42,250
business model. I'd rather go back to the
old days. Obviously we're busy, but I
26
00:02:42,250 --> 00:02:47,230
rather have it steady and safe then have
this going on this way. Listen, now we're
27
00:02:47,230 --> 00:02:51,300
will work as much as we can as hard as
we can. My guys are working 24 hours a day.
28
00:02:51,700 --> 00:02:53,580
We'll cover as much square footage as we
29
00:02:53,590 --> 00:02:59,459
could. You know where we live to get
this clean as fast as possible.
