Providing for the maintenance of a large office facility is a complex project. There are many things to consider. Sanitary maintenance is of the most important things to think about. It helps to know first which places are the dust and germ hotspots. AJS Carpet Cleaning offers the following tips about how to keep some critical places in the office clean.
Keyboards The computer keyboard has been revealed to be one of the dirtiest places in the office. One study showed the keyboard is up to five times dirtier than a toilet seat. Hands tend to carry a significant amount of germs on a daily basis. Many people eat at their desks which can transfer food and bacteria to the keyboard. Most people don’t clean their keyboards on a regular basis.
In offices where employees routinely share work spaces, this can be a serious health hazard. It is important to establish guidelines for employees regarding how often to clean their keyboards and to provide them with the necessary products to do so. Alternatively, it can be something to task the maintenance staff with on a regular basis.
Break Rooms Most offices provide employees with a kitchen or break room. These areas quickly become dirty due to the type of usage they experience. Frequent cleaning is recommended to maintain a clean and healthy environment for your staff. If the room features upholstered seating, it is important to have regular upholstery cleaning by a commercial cleaner.
Spot cleaning should be performed as necessary. If the room is carpeted, this area should be considered a heavy traffic area. It is subject to foot traffic and food and beverage spills. In most cases, these kinds of heavy traffic areas need to be cleaned by a professional carpet cleaning company on a quarterly basis. Vacuuming should be performed one or more times per day to pick up food crumbs and other materials.
Air Ducts Many people don’t think about the air ducts in an office because they are out of sight out of mind, so to speak. Dirty air ducts can prove a serious problem. They will circulate contaminants and leave the air saturated with dust and other pollutants. Most disposable filters only are able to remove a small portion of these pollutants. When the heating and cooling systems are in use, these pollutants are spread throughout the entire building. It can have a major impact on the appearance of your carpets.
It is important to have your air ducts professional cleaned on a regular basis.
