US: Corporate housing provider Furnished Quarters is set to introduce electrostatic sprayers as the company evolves its cleaning practices in light of COVID-19.
The company says the practices not only ensure its short-term furnished apartments are thoroughly cleaned, but also disinfected to the highest level possible.
Electrostatic sprayers are a technology that allows for the highest disinfection levels of surfaces and is the preferred cleaning technology of hospitals and medical facilities. The company has ordered the sprayers and expects them to arrive by July.
Furnished Quarters currently uses hospital-grade products to clean all high-touch surfaces such as bathrooms, counters, tabletops, remotes, doorknobs and apartment keys and fobs. Cleaning staff are required to wear masks and gloves. Additionally, all apartments have a minimum vacancy of 96 hours between guests.
“The safety of our guests and cleanliness of our apartments has always been paramount,” said Brian Terry, EVP of operations at Furnished Quarters. “Although our cleaning standards already follow CDC guidelines and address sanitation and disease concerns, we wanted to take them one step further by introducing this technology.”
