James enlightens us with his informational answers to the commonly asked question: Is Soft Washing Environmentally Friendly? James affirms that not only is softwashing environmentally friendly, but their company holds itself to a high environmental standard. They apply a green approach by using biodegradable and water-based solutions with low VOC emissions and non-hazardous materials. Moreover, their methods are primarily fossil fuel free, further demonstrating their environmental stewardship. Their environmentally-friendly approach doesn't stop with the soft wash solutions.

Unlike traditional gas-powered machines like lawnmowers or pressure washers, Louisiana Softwash utilizes a 12-volt electric system, run on a bank of deep cycle batteries. The benefits of this technology go beyond environmental sustainability. James points out that the electric pumps run quietly, avoiding noise pollution that can be a concern for residential neighborhoods or homes with children napping. In fact, many homeowners were pleasantly surprised to find that they were unaware of the team working, ensuring a peaceful and uninterrupted day for those at home. This episode serves to educate and reassure that softwashing is not only effective for exterior home cleaning, but it also maintains an environmentally-friendly and neighborhood-friendly approach.
