Look Up! Stop The Shame And Improve Airflow In Public Or Common Toilet Areas
How you can reduce those ever embarrassing moments for your patrons, staff and guests, as well as reduce the potential risks of fire and health related issues in your building.
Let’s face it – we’ve all been there. You’ve almost completed your weekly food shop, the kids are screaming, your trolly has a mind of it’s own – then somebody mumbles those seven unforgivable words – “I need to go to the toilet”. You have a vague idea where they are, down that glowing fluorescent-lit corridor around the back of that shop with the things. You leave one in charge of the others by the fruits and vegetables and set off quickly with your little one before a possible number three in isle two.
The centres busy, it’s peak-time Saturday. You ask yourself – “What have I done to deserve this?”. You approach the toilets, its corridors flanked with mums and dads waiting patiently for the same reasons you are. There’s minimal eye contact. There’s a smell in the air. There’s babies crying and Dad’s in a rush. You take a deep-breath and wish you hadn’t. Let’s get this over with.
You’ve made it in, but there’s no cubicles free. Your little one is about to burst and you think it’s all over – then you hear that magical ‘click’ and a cubicle door opens. You make brief eye contact with and notice their expression of mild-horror. It all makes sense now. They didn’t flush. With no time to ask yourself why you push that button with all your might and plonk little Lucy down before the next Big Bang.
The air is thick with smells of all sorts. You can see the facilities are reasonably clean on the surface but are in need of some TLC.
Then you look up.

Did They Miss These Bits?
You notice the grid-like vent in the ceiling, it’s absolutely covered in what looks like dirt, fluff and dust. You look over to the next cubicle and see another and immediately think you’re in some sort of Stephen King movie. No wonder there’s no air in here.. these things are totally blocked!
As your little one sorts herself out and the hand-wash train flows back out the main toilet area, you pass the others and realise why we all keep our heads down – none of us want to be responsible for each others totally natural, yet stinky ways.
Building Owners and Centre Managers – Let’s Do Something About It!
The team at SafeAir are all-too-familiar with this unfortunate scenario.
Cleaning staff to not possess the technical skills, knowledge and necessary tools to clean a ventilation exhaust duct system, and that’s OK – but as a business or a managers you must engage a professional, knowledgable duct cleaning contractor to properly deep-clean the toilet exhaust ventilation duct system.
So what’s Included In A Toilet Exhaust Ventilation Deep-Clean?
Remove Potential Fire Risks
Fires within duct systems are almost impossible to contain. Ducts containing holes or tearing have a greater potential to quickly spread throughout ceiling areas and into the surrounding fabric of the building.
SafeAir technicians clean and remove all lint, material and matter build-up from within the toilet duct system allowing a greater volume of air to exhaust through the toilet ventilation duct system.
Deep-Cleaning Your Toilet Exhaust Ventilation Duct Work Is The Only Way
As a general guide we recommend that all toilet exhaust ventilation duct systems are cleaned at approximately 2-4 year intervals.
This applies to toilet exhaust ventilation systems in Shopping Centres, Supermarkets, Universities and Education or Training Centres, Office Buildings, Government Public Facilities such as Halls and Libraries, Airports, Entertainment and Leisure Centres as well as Food Retailers.
