The amount of facility activity will determine the frequency of each type of cleaning - generally, the plenum floor should be vacuumed once each year.

 

If the facility has construction work, the plenum floor should be vacuumed after the work is completed. In some high-traffic facilities or facilities that have a large number of printers, the plenum floor should be cleaned two or three times each year. 

 

The cleaning of the floor tiles and equipment should be cleaned on an as-needed basis.  Once they have been cleaned, Mainframe can monitor the facility and advise on the proper frequency. We will maintain your facility in a clean and safe manner that is aesthetically pleasing to both your employees and visitors. Our objective is to provide the cleaning of dirty areas, as they are needed - not to re-clean the clean areas for the sake of making a profit. We will never waste your money by providing or recommending services that not needed.

 

There are other considerations in designing the proper program for your facility.
 

• Will the janitors empty the trash daily?

• What procedures will be performed by the regular janitorial service in between Mainframe cleanings?

• If they damp mop, are they using clean sponge mops and clean water?

• Are they using the proper type of cleaning products?

• If they are using a dust mop, are they pushing the dust and debris over the perforated panels, falling through the holes in the panel?

• Are they using a chemically-treated dust mop that will leave a residue on the floor panels or make the floor slippery?

 

There are very few cleaning procedures that need to be done in a computer facility on a daily basis. Mainframe can help you design a cleaning program for these types of concerns.
