  • Maintaining a 30-60% humidity level will help to control mould and dust
  • Make sure to keep Air Conditioners and Heaters clean to prevent re-contamination

Regular Cleaning

  • Vacuum regularly, but only when staff aren’t in the office to avoid unnecessary exposure to contaminants, after working hours is best
  • Use a HEPA filter equipped vacuum
  • Pay close attention to areas that get warm or damp

Low voc products
