There are a wide variety of floor cleaning tools on the market today. How do you navigate them all and choose THE best tool for the area you need to clean? Whether it's a scrubber, a mini scrubber, a double or single bucket wringer, a flat mop, or a regular mop, how do you choose the right one?
I always favor autoscrubber washing over any other washing system.
annual for the following reasons:
- The physical health of the worker is always more difficult with the repetitive movements of daily mopping with the so-called regular mop.
- With a single-unit wringer boiler system, you simply take the dirt from one end of the room and transport it to the other end of the room! You remove a thin layer of dirt and the rest is sure to make the floor even dirtier!
And now, washing equipment manufacturers have developed a range of floor washing equipment ranging from
The ride-on scrubber (the operator sits on the equipment and can therefore cover a very large area more quickly). Most will sweep AND wash the floor at the same time. This is a big time saver.
Push-type scrubbers have been around for a long time. These machines are mostly used for corridors. With most of these machines, you can
must dry mop the floors before washing. There are also smaller ones that can clean smaller rooms. And now we are seeing the introduction of mini-auto-scrubbers
much more affordable! Among these, one particularly stands out from the others. It is the new Comac mini-scrubber sold by Wood WyantIt is so small that it can fit under shelves or wash bathroom floors with satisfaction even with
screens between toilets. With this type of equipment, there's no reason to do without them.
Can't afford such equipment or is the space to be maintained really not suitable for this type of equipment?
So, I would favor a two-boiler system rather than a single regular twister boiler as we demonstrated at the beginning of this article. 
harmful effects. The best dual-tank washing system I know is the Choisy Elite 200 system. I've tested several systems, and to date, it's the one with the best durability and maneuverability, making it the best technology imported into Quebec.
If, despite all this, you choose to opt for floor washing with a wringer bucket and a regular damp mop, be aware that you will have to scrub your tile floors or brush your ceramic, terrazzo, concrete or other floors more often if you do not use a system that uses clean water to wash your floors.
Soil techniques training
Because maintenance is the most expensive part of housekeeping, I also suggest that you train your employees well on floor maintenance techniques. I have seen floors that had not been stripped for over 10 years and had floor finish added every year. This made the floor a yellowish and even brownish color depending on the number of years of poor maintenance. Here is the training that I suggest for a fortruly comprehensive informationThe next session is scheduled for March 5th to 7th on the South Shore of Montreal.
