Robust cleaning and disinfecting programs in casinos prevent from viral outbreaks

Thousands of casino visitors may come to play every day despite being sick with COVID, cold, flu or other viral outbreaks, which can be prevented with robust cleaning and disinfecting programs.

HVAC system
With a no-rinse surface sanitizer like Goodway’s BioSpray® D2 along with the powerful atomizing machine BioSpray®-10 Surface Sanitation System, virtually any hard surface in the casino can be sanitized. Door handles, buffet spoons or casino chips can all be sprayed and made safe for customers. It can even be used in the coffee shops, kitchens and restaurants to sanitize food contact surfaces.

The touchable surfaces in the casino can also be contaminated by what is deep inside the casino’s HVAC system. Dirty coils, slimy drain pans, and wet ductwork collect dust and mold that get blown down the ductwork and into the occupied space. Mold spores from the HVAC system can regenerate anywhere in the casino triggering coughing and respiratory infections.

The HVAC systems for larger casinos likely include multiple chillers, heat exchangers, and cooling towers. Since most casinos operate 24/7, the HVAC equipment works harder than typical commercial equipment necessitating an even more thorough maintenance program to not only work efficiently but provide air that is comfortable and safe for customers. Large amounts of outside air mixed with smoke, dust, or other indoor contaminants encourage mold and bacteria growth within the system. Moldy and germ-laden HVAC equipment makes occupants sick and drives customers away to other, more comfortable casinos.

Maintenance teams should have the proper tools to limit equipment downtime and keep customers on the gaming floor. The right tools, especially for maintaining critical equipment protects casino employees and customers from illnesses and protects managers and owners from potential litigation. Goodway’s line of chiller and boiler tube cleaning systems and coil cleaning systems lets facility managers team with one company to provide cleaning systems throughout their buildings.

Liquid Guardian
It is a novel way to protect slot machines, gaming tables, chips and air conditioners against Covid-19 and other viruses, which would reduce the percentages of contagion to guarantee the public a leisure experience in total tranquility.

Guardian Liquid® is not a cleaning product, nor a sanitizer, nor a surface disinfectant. It is a protective layer that prevents and reduces contamination on surfaces. You must clean, degrease, disinfect and allow to dry all types of surfaces before applying this antimicrobial coating. Liquid Guard® contains no dangerous poisons or toxics. The product inactivates the microorganisms that settle on the surface through a physical reaction, not a chemical one.

Liquid Guard® is a modified Silicon Dioxide (SiO2) based coating structured with sharp peaks and a constant positive ionic charge, capable of attracting the negative membranes of microorganisms and perforating them, thus reducing and inactivating fungi and spores.
