All Those Strange Machines
There are many reasons why having a professional cleaner is important for your company’s health and safety. One of these is the equipment they use. While household cleaners, wipes, vacuums etc. are fine for light cleaning, industrial grade equipment is built for tougher jobs and can offer better options for cleaning and disinfecting. If you have ever been in a factory, hospital or commercial building, you may have seen the janitorial staff using machines that don’t look like anything you would have around your home. Let’s take a look at some of these and help you understand what their purpose is.
FLOORSCRUBBER
Floor scrubbers come in many styles. They can be smaller with the user walking behind them or larger, riding ones for more expansive areas. The beauty of them is that they use clean water throughout the cleaning process. They also make it easy to disinfect floors as disinfectant can be poured into the solution tank and applied to floors. Because of their size and mechanics, they can also save cleaning time.
SWING MACHINE
These machines are used to clean, polish & buff many types of floors. The amount of water used is controlled by the user and released by pulling on a handle. These machines can create, clean, beautiful, shiny floors. They are, however, very powerful and need to be used by someone who has been properly trained. Just a slight up or down movement will make the machine move from side to side. Raising the handle will make it move right and lowering the handle will make it move left. These movements must be very controlled or it can become very dangerous. Professional cleaning companies will understand these machines and their use.
WET & DRY VACUUMS
Whether vacuuming water off a floor or keeping floors and carpets clean, industrial vacuums will have the power needed to get the job done. Having been built from heavy duty materials, commercial grade vacuums can dig deep to remove soil and dirt. They typically have greater suction power, motor power and greater efficiency. They also tend to have a higher performing filtration systems by using HEPA filters. They can be used for health critical applications, such as alleviating respiratory allergies and improve the quality of air. They ensure that what is sucked in, stays in. This leaves a healthier environment for your employees.
These “Caution” and “Wet Floor” signs may not look like equipment but they are crucial to the safety of your employees. A commercial cleaner will always ensure that signs are posted where needed to prevent slip and fall accidents. It’s not just about the act of cleaning. It’s about the care taken afterwards to keep everyone safe. Commercial cleaners have been trained to think of the things you may not have.
