RECOGNISING WASHROOM RISKSRECOGNISING WASHROOM RISKS

WASHROOM HYGIENE PROBLEMSWASHROOM HYGIENE PROBLEMS

Odours and Infections are caused by Bacteria, Viruses,

Moulds & Fungi in the Air and on Surfaces

Toilet flushing releases harmful bacteria into the air and

onto surfaces with aerosol force and volume

In 8 hours, a single bacteria cell can multiply to 8 million

Cleaning, disinfecting and masking cannot remove the

problem

Poor ventilation and poor personal hygiene spread the

problem outside the washroom

Increased Sickness and Absenteeism

Suggests indifferent management

Washrooms are a primary Washrooms are a primary source of infections including:source of infections including:

• Salmonella

• E Coli

• Common colds

• Influenza

• Bronco-Pneumonia

• Hepatitis A

• Rotavirus

BENEFITS SUMMARYBENEFITS SUMMARY

Why does Air Steril work Why does Air Steril work when others fail?when others fail?

Eliminates Bacteria 180 times faster than UV light machines Eliminates Bacteria 180 times faster than UV light machines

and 2000 times faster than an Ozone Generatorand 2000 times faster than an Ozone Generator

Why Do Alternative Solutions Fail?Why Do Alternative Solutions Fail?

Ozone GeneratorsDoes it kill Bacteria? Yes, kills both Bacteria & VirusesIs it working all the time? No, can not operate continuously, Ozone at high levels is unpleasant and can be a health hazard.Why doesn’t it work? Bacteria and viruses continue to multiply during the down time, meaning odours remain.

UV light Machines Does it kill Bacteria? Yes, Kills Bacteria & Viruses

Is it working all the time? Yes, It can operate continuously.Why doesn’t it Work? Air has to pass over the UV light to kill the micro-organisms and it takes so long for all the air to pass through the machine the bacteria multiply faster than all the washroom air can be processed, odours remain

Does it kill Bacteria? No, (Some propellants may contain some anti bacterial agents).Is it working all the time? No, can not operate continuously.Why doesn’t it work? When the perfume is still airborne it can effectively hide some odours, but this is intermittent the bacteria and health hazards remain and odours invariably prevail.

1. The Titanium Dioxide Plates inside the unit act as a Hetrogeneous Catalysis with the UV light to transform oxygen into a reactive state so it accepts a single electron, the molecule that gave up the electron is oxidised. The result is the production of Superoxide Ions. Part of this process also produces Hydroxyl Radicals which are some of the strongest oxidizers known, stronger than ozone.

2. Germicidal Irradiation (UV light) will kill micro-organisms as the air passes through the unit by disrupting the DNA of micro-organisms and preventing reproduction.

3. Superoxide Ions work by electrically charging air contaminates as small as 0.01 microns and causing them to form clusters, thus assisting removal from the air and aiding the other processes.

4. Triatomic Oxygen (Ozone) is excited oxygen atoms produced via a catalyst in the lamp (Quartz). Triatomic Oxygen, will eliminate bacteria, viruses, fungi and VOC s in the air and on exposed surfaces as it leaves the unit with the air flow.

5. Plasma Quatro is the gas energized by the high intensity UV light, it leaves the unit with the airflow and consists of a mixture of activated oxygen, triatomic oxygen and superoxide ions. These interact with each other giving a very efficient purification of the air and all exposed surfaces. Many times more efficient than ozone or UV light working alone.
