CIRS & Advanced Remediation

Specialized expertise in Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome remediation, applied microbial treatment, and indoor air quality restoration.

What Is Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome?

CIRS is a multi-system, multi-symptom illness caused by exposure to biotoxins - most commonly from water-damaged buildings. When mold, bacteria, and other microorganisms grow in damp indoor environments, they release biotoxins that can trigger a chronic inflammatory response in genetically susceptible individuals.

Approximately 25% of the population carries the genetic markers that make them vulnerable to CIRS. For these individuals, standard mold remediation is not enough - the environment must meet strict cleanliness standards to prevent ongoing exposure and symptom recurrence.

Why Standard Cleanup Falls Short Traditional restoration companies focus on visible mold and water damage. But CIRS patients require remediation that addresses microscopic particulate matter, volatile organic compounds, and biotoxin residues that persist long after visible contamination is removed. This is where our specialized protocols make the difference.

Blue Earth Restoration is one of the few companies in Southern California trained and equipped to perform CIRS-compliant remediation - following the protocols established by leading environmental medicine practitioners to create truly safe indoor environments.

CIRS Remediation

Primary Specialty

Our CIRS remediation protocols go far beyond standard mold cleanup. We follow evidence-based procedures designed to reduce indoor biotoxin levels to safe thresholds for even the most sensitive occupants.

Every CIRS project includes full containment, HEPA air scrubbing, thorough remediation, and verification that the space meets clearance criteria before reoccupancy.

Small Particle Cleaning (SPC)

Advanced Method

Small Particle Cleaning is a specialized deep-cleaning methodology designed to remove fine particulate matter that standard cleaning methods miss. SPC targets particles in the 1-3 micron range - the size of mold spores, bacteria fragments, and other biotoxins.

This is a critical step in CIRS remediation and post-fire restoration, where microscopic contaminants embedded in surfaces can continue triggering health symptoms long after visible damage is addressed.

Indoor Air Quality (IAQ)

Assessment & Treatment

Indoor air can be 2-5 times more polluted than outdoor air. Our comprehensive IAQ services identify and address the sources of indoor air contamination - from mold spores and VOCs to dust, allergens, and chemical off-gassing.

We provide comprehensive assessment and remediation solutions, ensuring your indoor environment meets the highest health and safety standards.

Applied Microbial Remediation

Bioscience

Applied microbial remediation uses advanced biological science to identify, quantify, and eliminate harmful microbial contamination in indoor environments. This goes beyond surface-level mold treatment to address the full spectrum of microbial threats.

Our protocols incorporate the latest research in environmental microbiology, ensuring treatment plans are tailored to the specific organisms present in your environment.

How We Approach CIRS Remediation

1

Initial Assessment & Evaluation

We conduct a comprehensive environmental evaluation to identify all sources of biotoxin exposure and establish the scope of remediation needed.

2

Remediation Plan Development

Based on our assessment, we develop a detailed remediation plan that addresses every contamination source. We coordinate with your physician or environmental consultant when applicable.

3

Containment & Source Removal

We establish full negative pressure containment, remove contaminated materials, and perform thorough source treatment using CIRS-compliant protocols.

4

Small Particle Cleaning

Every surface in the affected area undergoes SPC - HEPA vacuuming and damp-wiping to remove fine particulate matter that standard cleaning leaves behind.

5

Verification & Clearance

Post-remediation verification confirms that contamination levels meet clearance criteria. We don't consider the job complete until your space is verified safe for reoccupancy.
