We carry a selection of cleaning products that can help to prevent the spread of bacteria, including the Coronavirus (COVID-19):
Steam Cleaners:
Available in handheld, canister, and mop styles steam cleaners turn regular tap water into water vapor. This vapor can reach temperatures of 245°F (118°C) at the nozzle tip killing 99.9% of bacteria from the surface. Handheld steamers can be used to disinfect doorknobs, handles, countertops, showers, hand railing’s, sinks, mattresses, and upholstery that is not easily laundered like couches. While steam mops are idea for disinfecting flooring including tiles and laminate. Due to the versatility the hose and cleaning attachments provide a canister style steam cleaner is recommended when looking for the most efficient way to clean your whole home.
Air Purifiers:
When selecting an air purification system it is important to understand the different quality of filters and filtration standards that are available. Brands (including Austin Air and IQAir) use incredibly advanced filter systems that allow their units to capture airborne particles including virus’ and bacteria. During SARS IQAir was used in hospitals and other sensitive areas. By using an air purifier it allows the overall level of airborne particles in the space to be reduced limiting your exposure to illness causing bacteria. Since all particles in the air (including dust and dander) are reduced air purification systems can help alleviate symptoms caused by respiratory illnesses like allergies, asthma, and COPD.
e-cloth:
What can a simple microfibre cloth and water do? As it turns out quite a lot! Due to the ultra concentrated fibres per square centimeter e-cloth’s are proven to capture 99% of bacteria from surfaces. The fibres act as little fingers trapping the bacteria until they are released when cleaned. Cloths can be washed in the laundry, boiled on the stove, or microwaved to remove the trapped bacteria. Hard to clean or delicate surfaces can now benefit from being cleaned. By cleaning with just water exposure to harsh chemicals can be avoided, which are a known trigger for allergy and asthma symptoms, as well as other breathing conditions.
