For this is where Hygienius® really scores. A simple and complete disinfection routine ensures no bugs can exist. Extensively tested by the Hospital Infection Research Laboratory at Birmingham City Hospital, a simple disinfection routine was agreed. See download details of PDF file below.

After emptying the TEALtainer Twin Bag of both fresh and dirty water, a solution of 500ppm of chlorate solutions must be prepared and placed into the fresh water bag.

Hygienius® has a unique purge system that is operated by a small red button situated behind the illuminated panel and beneath the power box by the on/off rocker switch.

After reconnceting the TEALtainer, run the purge for 5 minutes then empty the TEALtainer completely and rise out with fresh cold water. Use the purge button again and flush out the whole system with fresh water to remove any remaining disinfectant solution.

To maintain a negligable level of contamination, the Hospital Infection Prevention Laboratory state that it is sufficient for this simple proceedure to be implemented every other day.
