Summer is just about here and that means summer heat is close behind. As somebody responsible for a commercial facility, you may have been waiting impatiently for the arrival of summer, especially after a long, difficult winter.
There are some things you need to keep in mind, though, with regard to the summer heat and the cleanliness of your commercial facility. The hotter it gets outside, the more cleanliness could be impacted.
How does that happen?
The most significant issue that arises during the summer, especially for commercial facilities, is the use of air-conditioning systems. Central air-conditioning systems run through a series of ducts. When those ducts are not cleaned properly, they can hold dust, dirt, allergens, and other pollutants.
When that happens, every time the system turns on to begin moving cool air throughout the building, it will likely begin picking up more dust and dirt, allergens and pollutants, and transferring them to other areas throughout the facility. This means the floors, furniture, and other items may begin to appear dirty faster than you thought possible.
It’s a good idea to have the duct work throughout your commercial facility professionally cleaned in the spring, before summer arrives. The facility may have already started using the central air system to keep people cool and comfortable.
Whatever the case, when you get those ducts clean, it helps to reduce the amount of dust and dirt that collects throughout the facility, including on those floors. It not only helps to keep your facility cleaner, it also provides a safer and healthier environment for everyone who uses it, whether it is tenants, clients, customers, or anyone else.
When you want to thoroughly clean your commercial facility and make sure it’s ready for the summer season, don’t neglect the duct work throughout the building. A professional cleaning doesn’t have to cost an arm and a leg and your facility will look great this summer.
