Indoor Air Quality is of high importance in a healthcare hospital environment. Filtration and the right vacuum cleaner for correct floor care matters!
There can be no short cuts when it comes to vacuuming and sanitising Healthcare Hospital environments. The wrong type of vacuum cleaner can spread air borne illnesses. Using the RIGHT vacuum cleaner with a electric brush roller for maximum debris removal and HEPA grade filtration for capturing nasty air born particles is BEST.
Popular Healthcare Hospital Vacuum Cleaner Brands
Many popular vacuum brands will clean the surface of the carpet but miss picking up the harmful debris and allergens within the fibres and located at the bottom of the carpet pile.
Hospital Healthcare Hygiene is paramount
Hospitals and aged care facilities must ensure their premises are clean. High cleaning standards are important so as to prevent the spread of infection. Imagine all the allergens, dirt and debris that you bring with you on the bottom of you shoes when you walk through the doors of a building. Debris left on carpet can become compressed down into the bottom of the pile.
Suction only vacuums just don’t clean well enough!
Debris left behind by ‘suction only’ barrels and backpack vacuum cleaners causes two problems. One being that it destroys the carpet fibre. The second problem, poor carpet maintenance harbours micro – organism growth.
Using an upright vacuum with the motorised brush roller will solve this problem!
Why an Upright Vacuum Cleaner?
The aim of the bush roller is to agitate the base of the carpet removing all the built up debris and potential micro-organisms like mould spores, dust mite faeces, etc.
This may reduce the spread of potential infectious diseases. Vacuumed up, filtered from the air stream, not left in the carpet to fester and grow.
An Upright Vacuum Cleaner is better for your body, allow for ceiling to floor reach all without breaking your back!
