Using an air purifier to keep the air healthy for your clients
Monday, October 31st, 2011Using an air purifier to keep the air healthy for your clients and nail technicians is as important as offering the right shades of polish. Here are 5 facts you need to know about the cleaner you choose to put to work in your salon.A portable unit is best. This is a super feature to have for a number of reasons.. When a nail technicians is doing a particularly smelly procedure, it’s handy to be able to move the unit close to the source of the fumes. Since the purifier will pull in and clean the air that is closest to it first, this will help minimize the vapors that have a chance to evaporate into the air.Even if you own the building that houses your salon, a portable unit (particularly one with wheels) can go anywhere in your shop and beyond. This eliminates the expensive start up costs of a built-in purification system.. And the ability to take the cleaner with you assures you that clean air is always as close as the nearest outlet.The motor should be heavy-duty. In order to be effective the air needs to be filtered 24 hours a day. Left unchecked, chemical fumes from many of the nail technicians products can linger in the air for hours, even days.Choosing a cleaner that provides constant changes of air guarantees that fumes are never allowed to build to unhealthy or embarrassing levels. A split capacitor is a must for this type of continuous operation because it allows the unit to run continuously and safely even when your salon is closed. Letting it run overnight insures that the air will smell fresh and clean to you and your clients regardless of their appointment time.
