How to use it
- Clean, descale and disinfect showerheads, hoses and spray outlets on the schedule set by your risk assessment (commonly quarterly).
- Record the condition of each head and hose, replacing perished or heavily scaled components.
- Minimise aerosol release during the work and flush through after disinfection.
- Log defects as actions and keep records alongside your monitoring logs as evidence of control of aerosol-producing outlets.
