Why We Use Eco-Friendly Products and HEPA Vacuums in Every Clean
A beautifully clean home should never come at the cost of your health, your comfort, or your peace of mind.
At Velanna Home, we believe cleaning should be gentle yet effective, high-standard but not harsh, and always safe for people, pets, and the planet. That’s why every service we provide — from one-time deep cleans to recurring maintenance — includes eco-friendly cleaning products and HEPA-filtered vacuums, by default.
Here’s why that matters — and how it makes a difference in your home.
What Are HEPA Vacuums — and Why Do They Matter?
HEPA stands for High-Efficiency Particulate Air. These vacuums capture:
- Fine dust and allergens
- Pet dander
- Pollen and microscopic particles
- 99.97% of contaminants as small as 0.3 microns
Why it matters: Regular vacuums can blow dust back into the air. HEPA vacuums trap it — helping reduce allergies, asthma triggers, and overall indoor air pollution.
In a city like Calgary, where homes stay sealed up for long winters, clean air isn’t a luxury — it’s a necessity.
What’s In Our Cleaning Products?
We choose products that are plant-based, biodegradable, and non-toxic, including:
- Decyl glucoside
- Citric acid
- Benzyl alcohol (natural preservative)
- Vegetable glycerin
- Pure essential oils (eucalyptus, peppermint, orange)
- Fine pumice and baking soda for gentle scrubbing
We avoid:
- Harsh bleaches
- Ammonia
- Artificial fragrances
- Sulfates and formaldehyde derivatives
What touches your surfaces eventually touches you. We treat your space with the same care we’d want in our own homes.
Why Scent-Free and Natural Options Matter
Some of our clients are scent-sensitive. Others have young children, pets, or compromised immunity. Some simply value cleaning that feels natural and nourishing.
That’s why we offer:
- Scent-free options (no essential oils or fragrance)
- Low-residue and rinse-free cleaners
- Steam-powered tools that sanitize with water only
- Grain alcohol and distilled water for glass & mirror finishes
Cleaning Can Be Beautiful, Too
A beautifully cleaned home should feel like a breath of fresh air — not like a chemical fog.
We bring elegance and intention into every service, choosing methods and materials that align with your values and your well-being.
