Keeping a fitness center clean is one of the most important things to do to maintain a healthy environment. Clean air and surfaces are necessary for people with allergies or asthma, but they also help keep bacteria levels low. This blog post will discuss why it is vital to have clean air and surfaces for your fitness center.

Commercial Air purifiers are essential for fitness centers because they help remove allergens, viruses and bacteria from the air. It is essential for people who have allergies or asthma. In addition, to that it is beneficial for everyone in the fitness center. When the air is clean, it is easier to breathe, and you are less likely to catch a cold, virus or the flu.

Fitness centers are known to have gym odor and strong sweat smell. Air purifiers help improve indoor air quality by removing odors caused by sweat. Exercising causes a build-up of toxins in your body that is getting released through sweat or breathing exercises. Air Purifiers also help improve removing , bacteria, germs and viruses.

Surface cleaners are essential because they help remove bacteria, viruses, and germs from the surfaces in a gym. It is beneficial for fitness centers with showers and locker rooms where there can be many different kinds of germs and viruses; most people only clean their shower once every few weeks or even less frequently. When you do not use a surface cleaner, it is easier for the germs, bacteria and viruses to spread and can lead to more people getting sick.

 

Reduce the Risk of Infection in Fitness Centers

Surface cleaners can help reduce the risk of infection in your fitness center by removing allergens, bacteria, germs, viruses and odors on gym equipment. It will help reduce the spread of a virus outbreak or get people sick.

Using commercial air purifiers are beneficial to clean the air and surfaces for fitness centers, and they should be considered a necessary part of any gym’s cleaning arsenal. Not only do they help keep people healthy, but they can also help reduce the number of bacteria and viruses present in the air and on surfaces. It will make it easier to maintain a clean environment and help keep people from getting sick.

 

Using A Commercial Air and Surface Purifier For Fitness Centers

AirROS purifiers utilize and create ROS (Reactive Oxygen Species). First, it kills pathogens and odor as it passes through the air purifier. Then, it sanitizes the air that comes out of the purifier, enters the environment, and continues to sanitize all surfaces it contacts. Here is the 2 stage process:

 

Phase 1- Primary Air Cleaning

Placed within your room’s airflow, air from the environment containing microorganisms enters the purifier’s internal chamber. The reaction chamber creates non-thermal plasma and generates ROS. ROS has comprised of 5 short-lived, highly Reactive Oxygen Species:

• Atomic oxygen,
• Singlet oxygen,
• Hydroxyl radical,
• Superoxide and
• Peroxynitrite

These break down carbon-to-carbon bonds that sanitize the air and destroy all bacteria, molds, viruses, and other pathogens as they pass through the reaction chamber.

Phase 2- Secondary Surface & Air Cleaning

Provides Surface sanitation and continued Air sanitation. The purified air now diffused into the environment contains longer lived Reactive Oxygen Species:

• Gas-phased H2O2- or dry hydrogen peroxide
• Low concentration levels of O3-ozone

That further sanitizes room air and surfaces. So again, in addition to treating the ambient air as it passes through the reaction chamber, using the H2O2 and O3 diffused into the environment, our units will further sanitize all Surfaces and control Odor, resulting in clean air and surfaces 24/7.

With the increasing popularity of more intense exercise programs like CrossFit, more people spend time in fitness centers. This is great for getting healthier and staying fit but can also make it difficult to keep surfaces clean with all the sweat, germs and viruses that come from so many people working out. It is not enough to wipe down equipment after use or mop up a few spills; you need an air purifier to remove bacteria before they spread through your facility while keeping surfaces sanitized too.
