Thermal bed bug response built for apartment communities.

Heat Wave uses commercial heaters to raise the unit temperature up to approximately 135°F. That heat is lethal to bed bugs at every life stage—eggs, nymphs, and adults—and reaches walls, furniture, and mattresses where chemical-only approaches can miss activity.

A typical thermal treatment takes 4–8 hours. Residents can return the same day after the unit is cleared. The goal is a single coordinated visit rather than a drawn-out sequence that creates repeated access, resident communication, and scheduling work.

Portable equipment means the treatment does not depend on a third-party equipment schedule. Heat Wave coordinates preparation, access, treatment, and post-treatment direction with the property team so occupied and vacant units can move through a clear process.

The published Services page states that Heat Wave guarantees the performance of the thermal treatment. With good preparation and post-care, thermal treatments are warrantied and guaranteed. That language describes the existing process; it is not a new outcome claim created for this page.

“We had a bed bug situation in three units. Heat Wave handled it in 48 hours with zero resident complaints.”
