WHAT IS Servi-Tek DOING TO FIGHT COVID-19?

COMMERCIAL CLEANING & DISINFECTION METHOD USING AN ELECTROSTATIC SPRAYER

Stop the spread of bacteria and viruses with an electrically charged electrostatic spraying service using a hospital-grade disinfectant. With the guidance provided by local and international health organizations, we are taking the following precautionary measures to minimize the risk of viral spread:

•We continue to provide the additional daily service of spraying high-touch areas during our normal nightly service
•Our team members are trained in the project and personal hygiene practices consistent with CDC recommendations
•We offer Electrostatic Spraying (Biosafety Level 3 (BSL-3) cleaning solutions for hard-to-reach surfaces using a positive charge for negative surfaces.
•Servi-Tek uses certified Procter & Gamble antibacterial products in common/office areas as well as in the restrooms.
•We utilize disposable disinfectant wipes on “touch areas.”
•Each site has personal care products for employees to use hourly

OUR EMPLOYEE PRACTICES

The Servi-Tek team is currently providing hand sanitizers and gloves with all our equipment to help reduce both contact with as well as the spread of the COVID-19 virus.

Additionally, we’ve informed our staff that any employee who feels ill is REQUIRED to stay home, pending additional diagnosis by medical professionals

SERVI-TEK DISINFECTING PROCESS – BIOSAFETY LEVEL-3

BEFORE AN ACTUAL DISINFECTING OPERATION, ALL SPRAY EQUIPMENT IS SET UP ACCORDING TO OUR STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES:

Sterilize hopper
Remove and sterilize nozzle and spray handle
Prepare product dilution as specified on its label

REQUIRED EMPLOYEE PROTECTION (PPE)

Gloves
Masks
Eye Protection

NOTE – While product is not caustic, is it highly recommended that occupants not be present during application and for 20 minutes after.

Know the difference between CLEANING, SANITIZING AND DISINFECTING.

Cleaning removes germs
Sanitizing lowers the numbers of germs
Disinfecting kills germs

NOTE – BSL-3 is designed to disinfect.

STEPS FOR PROPER APPLICATION

Load hopper
Apply disinfectant to all horizontal and vertical surfaces
Apply on all objects with special attention to high-contact items such as: desks, countertops, doorknobs, computer keyboards, etc.
Apply disinfectant on visible vents and returns

Clean and disinfect correctly.

Always follow label directions of (BSL-3)* cleaning solutions
Use a backpack atomizer for BSL-3 solutions to spray above and throughout the entire office. This process leaves a fine mist that remains wet for 2-4 hours
The product will leave tiny spots on surfaces once dried naturally. That may brush off or will need to be cleaned off at a later time (removal of “water spots” is not part of this service)

Dwell Time Practices

Servi-Tek has begun utilizing Dwell Time practices, a key component in BSL-3 cleaning protocol, at all of our client sites. Dwell Time routines leave our antibacterial product on surfaces without removal to combat the spread of germs.

Our Dwell Time routines include:

›Night service cleans door knobs and door handles
›Day porters cleans elevators, restroom doors and restroom fixtures
›Dwell Time practices create a wet barrier, allowing surfaces to dry naturally.
›Dwell Time strategies do leave tiny spots on surfaces.
›If any client prefers to use conventional cleaning methods, Servi-Tek will not follow BSL guidelines, cleaning instead for appearance, not infection

Installation of UV Light Fixtures

As the infection is airborne, Servi-Tek’s Engineering team is recommending the installation of UV light fixtures in all air handlers, fan rooms and mixed air plenum spaces.

This is a relatively low-cost solution compared to continuous filter changing and will also be effective against most airborne spores, including mold… a common practice in the healthcare and life sciences industry for over a decade.

POST COVID-19 UPDATE!

As commercial property and facility managers return to normalcy, significant time and resources are consumed with precautions and considerations needed for maintaining a smoothly running commercial facility and keeping clients, tenants, and coworkers safe.

All in the same boat

We’re consistently monitoring the guidance from local and international health organizations, and taking precautions to minimize the risk of spreading the virus.

Let’s take a look at what’s happening in the commercial property world as we continue to battle Covid-19. Sharing solutions and guiding each other is the best way to work together in these unprecedented times. Here at ServiTek, it’s our hope that this newsletter is helpful to you all as we continue to learn more about what’s happening in the current challenging climate.

BEST PRACTICES FOR THE PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT

Perhaps you read about the IREM Orange County’s meeting to discuss the importance of janitorial services, visibility, signage, and the safe reopening of commercial property? If not, you can catch the information here.

To summarize, prudent actions for commercial property and facility managers may include:

Per CDC recommendations, increased cleaning schedules and use of effective cleaning products that destroy the virus.
Enhanced cleaning of frequently touched areas, such as elevator buttons, door handles, and handrails.
Installing dispensers for soap and hand sanitizer that encourage hand hygiene.
Rearranging the layout of workspaces to facilitate social distancing so that coworkers can remain further apart.
Placing notices, posters, and stickers to encourage appropriate coughing etiquette, hand hygiene, and maintaining ongoing communication with staff.
Conducting risk assessments and considering supply chain interruption.
Regulations regarding that staff are promptly notified of symptomatic employees.
Considering safety protocols for large, public events held on the property.

The guidance

Of course, almost all commercial buildings are workplaces, so

OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Act) is a great resource to ensure a safe and healthy workplace.

Thankfully, the OSHA website has lots of information, such as guidance on safe return to work, worker exposure risk, guidance on preparing workplaces, and more.
