Winter Tips For Your Commercial Building

All of us in NE Ohio have seen winter in full swing this week. With freezing temperatures and intense snowfall we’re sharing some tips on how to take care of your building during these harsh winter days. 

Protect Entry & Walkways 

Employees and visitors are more likely to slip and fall during winter months because of the slush from snow and rain. Be prepared and avoid accidents by placing anti-slip and waterproof mats at every entrance. Have a plan for snow removal and keep sidewalks and pathways cleared and salted. 

Disinfect to Avoid Illness

Your office should be regularly cleaned all year long, but during prime flu and cold season, and with Covid-19 still running rampant,  it’s important to take extra precautions. If you don't already have a professional cleaning service, now is the time to get one. If you do, contact your service to schedule extra cleaning and disinfecting. Keeping your office clean during winter is most important since infectious germs and diseases are easily transferred this time of year.

Keep Floors Clean

During winter floors get a lot of wear and tear with all the snow and salt that gets tracked in. Mats will help so employees and visitors can wipe their shoes when they enter the building. Keep the mats clean with regular cleaning, and keep them dry and vacuumed. Cleaning the floors at the end of the day will prevent damage to your floors. A team of professional cleaners can help maintain your floors with a regular care plan to avoid any costly future repairs.

HVAC Maintenance

HVACs build up dust, dander, and bacteria, so have a yearly HVAC maintenance plan to keep the system working properly throughout the winter. Make sure your HVAC system is cleaned to reduce circulation of germs. Have your air filters changed each winter to avoid getting more dust and bacteria in the air and keep it healthy all winter long.
