A Deeper Clean Amid COVID-19
A number of clients in professional services have recently requested a deep clean and disinfection. In response, we offered them the following protocols depending on their office traffic:
IF VACATED
Studies show that the COVID-19 virus does not stay active on any fomite surfaces (desk, counters, etc.) beyond five days, and much shorter on metal, plastics, paper and cardboard. In this case, we recommend a deep clean of all surfaces utilizing regular cleaning processes.
IF ACTIVITY WITHIN FIVE DAYS
You should consider a deep cleaning and disinfection of all touchpoints. These include:
| • door handles • door release pads • elevator buttons • handrails • multi-functional copiers |
• kitchen appliances • counter tops and edges • light switches • telephones • keyboards and monitors |
STAFF SAFETY IS CRITICAL
Our technicians follow best practices recommended by Health Canada. This includes wearing Personal Protective Equipment consisting of N95 masks and latex gloves.
