Question 1

How often should a commercial office be cleaned?

Accepted Answer

For offices with regular headcounts, five days a week is the standard that actually moves the needle on employee health. Anything less and you're maintaining appearances, not preventing problems.

Question 2

Does office cleanliness really affect sick days?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We've tracked a roughly 20% reduction in sick-day usage after switching to daily cleaning service. Bacteria on shared surfaces like keyboards can survive up to 24 hours, so weekly cleaning leaves four full days of accumulation.

Question 3

What's the difference between HEPA vacuuming and regular vacuuming?

Accepted Answer

Standard vacuums recirculate fine particles back into the air. HEPA filtration captures those particles at the source, which directly improves indoor air quality, especially in offices where dust and allergens build up in carpet fibers and vents.

Question 4

What is UV-C germicidal irradiation in HVAC systems?

Accepted Answer

UV-C light installed in your HVAC destroys bacteria, viruses, and mold spores at the DNA level before they circulate through the building. It runs continuously in the background and addresses airborne transmission that surface cleaning can't touch.
