Professional commercial cleaners can address embedded allergens, mould, mildew, and dirty air vents to improve indoor air quality. Better air quality and a healthier office environment can positively impact job satisfaction and employee well-being.
Here are 5 ways investing in commercial cleaning can improve indoor air quality and show your staff you value them.
5 Ways Professional Commercial Cleaning Improves Indoor Air Quality
- Dust and Allergen Removal
- Deep Cleaning of Carpets
- Greener Cleaning Products and Practices
- Mould and Mildew Reduction
- Better Ventilation and Cleaner Air Vents
1. Dust and Allergen Removal
Dust, allergens, pollen, and airbourne irritants can aggravate allergies and respiratory problems, especially among sensitive individuals. Professional cleaning services utilise specialty techniques and state-of-the-art equipment to achieve a deep clean. For instance, we utilise HEPA vacuum filters with superior filtration to ensure microscopic particles are removed.
Consistent cleaning of high-traffic areas and dust-prone areas, such as light fixtures and ceiling fans, reduces dust buildup. By preventing dust from building up, airbourne particles are reduced. This minimises the chance of staff being exposed to allergens or microscopic particles that can trigger respiratory issues
2. Deep Cleaning Of Carpets and Upholstery
Carpets and upholstered materials are notorious for harbouring germs. These materials often trap allergens, irritants, pollutants, and dust.
Vacuuming may leave carpets looking cleaner, but it often misses the ground-in dirt and debris. This buildup and grime is difficult to clean without proper equipment and techniques. The wrong vacuum can also damage carpet fibres and decrease their lifespan.
Professional commercial cleaners can achieve a deep clean without damaging delicate fibres and fabrics. We have the equipment and techniques needed to successfully remove deeply embedded dirt in the fibres. At Broadway Cleaning, we utilise effective equipment that removes stains, microscopic particles, and dirt, such as:
- Steam cleaning (hot water extraction methods)
- HEPA filter vacuums
- Encapsulation cleaning
- UV light sanitisation
These specialty methods can remove dirt, allergens, and particles that standard cleaning techniques can’t address. By deep cleaning carpet and upholsteries, staff and visitors can enjoy improved indoor air quality.
3. Greener Cleaning Products and Reduced Chemicals
Harsh, chemical-laden cleaning products can leave your office cleaner — but how are they affecting the air quality? Traditional cleaning products often contain volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that can release harmful gasses that can linger in the air.
Many professional commercial cleaners understand the benefits of using environmentally friendly cleaning products. Eco-friendly cleaning products are designed with fewer toxins and chemicals and hypoallergenic ingredients. By choosing healthier cleaning products, you can support healthier indoor air for your staff and visitors.
At Broadway Commercial Cleaning, environmentally friendly cleaning products and practices is one of our core priorities. We choose products that support better air quality while still being effective against grime, allergens, and dirt.
Non-toxic cleaning alternatives can deliver the same sparkling clean results. The difference is that eco-friendly products clean with fewer chemicals, lower VOCs, and none of the unpleasant effects of traditional cleaners.
Consistent professional cleaning can also reduce VOCs in the office in other ways. For instance, thoroughly cleaning surfaces surrounding printers, copiers, and other office equipment can help reduce VOCs.
4. Mould and Mildew Reduction
Mould and mildew are significant threats to indoor air quality. These common fungi thrive in moisture-rich environments, potentially releasing spores into the air that can cause allergic reactions and respiratory reactions. Professional commercial cleaners are equipped to identify problem areas and safely address mould growth.
As professional cleaners, we pay special attention to moisture-prone areas, such as bathrooms, under sinks, and near windows. We have the techniques and products needed to safely and thoroughly clean mould. Our rigorous protocols enable us to disinfect, remove, and help prevent mould from recurring.
5. Better Ventilation and Cleaner Air Vents
Proper ventilation is one of the most crucial aspects of healthy indoor air. Professional commercial cleaning services help contribute to better airflow and ventilation by:
- Ensuring HVAC systems are deeply cleaned
- Removing accumulated dust and debris from air vents
- Regularly cleaning air ducts and returns
- Maintaining clean HVAC filters and changing filters as needed
Air ducts can become clogged over time with mould spores, pollen, and dust, allowing them to be circulated in the air. Proper ventilation and clean air vents promote healthier throughout the work space. Clean HVAC systems also run more efficiently and can last longer, saving money in the long run.
