The Luv-A-Rug High Temperature Dry Room
Another way Luv-A-Rug maintains a virus free workplace is by running the dry room at very high temperatures. Evidence has come forward to suggest viruses are not able to survive in such hot conditions and that your rugs come out virtually "pasteurized".
According to an article from Business Insider (see below) high heat dries out the protective fat layer of the virus which then leads to it's destruction.

The surrounding temperature makes a big difference.
"The Journal of Hospital Infection study also found that spikes in temperature made a difference in the lifespans of coronaviruses. An 18-degree Fahrenheit jump, from 68 degrees to 86 degrees, decreased how long SARS lasted on steel surfaces by at least half.
That's because some coronaviruses, including this new one, have a viral envelope: a fat layer that protects viral particles when traveling from person to person in the air. That sheath can dry out, however, killing the virus.
So higher humidity, moderate temperatures, low wind, and a solid surface are all good for a coronavirus' survival, Graham said. This also explains why respiratory viruses are typically seasonal: Cooler temperatures help harden the protective gel-like coating that surrounds the particles."
