Who lives around Canyon Lake?
Canyon Lake is both the reservoir and the community that wraps around it in the Comal County hills, strung along FM 306 and FM 2673. Homes climb from the shoreline up the slopes: year-round houses for retirees and families, weekend places, and rentals for visitors who come for the lake or to tube the Guadalupe below the dam.
Each of those homes gathers a bio-load in its own way. That's our word for the tiny particles that collect in the air, on surfaces and inside the HVAC system, and What Is Your Home's Bio-Load? spells it out.
Where does the air go stale in a lake house?
The weekend place. Shut from Sunday night to Friday, it greets you with trapped, still air. Our closed-up homes guide covers what to do while you're gone.
The rental. One group after another leaves behind cooking smells, sunscreen and wet river gear. Our short-term rentals guide has turnover tips.
The lower level. Rooms built into the hillside stay cooler than the floors above and can feel damp.
Cedar season. Ashe juniper covers these hills, and from December into February its pollen rides in through every open door.
What does the dry fog do?
Every Pure Maintenance Austin job runs on the patented VaPURE dry fog system, whose droplets measure about 7 microns: small enough to hang in the air instead of wetting bunk beds and couch cushions. Positive pressure pushes the fog into every room, closet, crack and crevice and through the ductwork. Along the way it helps control the growth of odor-causing microorganisms on hard, non-porous surfaces and, as it settles, temporarily reduces airborne particulates. Then a second fog lays down a surface protectant.
It all happens in one day. After a 4-hour air-out, you, or your next guests, can be inside the same day. The dry fog treatment page has the full process.
Can we set this up from out of town?
Yes. The consultation is a free phone call, so it works even if you're only at the lake some weekends. A team member learns what's going on in the house and sends a written quote based on square footage before anything goes on the calendar.
Canyon Lake FAQ
When is a good time to treat a rental?
Many hosts book before the summer rush, or in a quiet week in fall or winter. The house is ready for guests the same day, after the 4-hour air-out.
Who needs to be there on treatment day?
Just someone to let us in. Set the AC to 68 degrees before we arrive, and plan for nobody to stay inside during the treatment or the air-out.
