The overhead problem in gyms and fitness centers
Lint from towels and clothing loads return grilles and fan blades quickly.
Members spend time looking up during stretching and floor work.
What to clean first
Return Air Grille Cleaning
Return air grille cleaning removes the heavy dust and lint that builds up on the large grilles that pull room air back to the HVAC system.
Ceiling Fan Cleaning
Ceiling fan cleaning removes the thick dust and grease that build up on fan blades, motor housings and downrods.
HVLS Big Fan Cleaning
HVLS fan cleaning removes the heavy dust that coats the large airfoils and hubs of high-volume low-speed fans in warehouses, gyms, hangars and event venues.
TV and Display Cleaning
TV and display cleaning removes dust, grease film and smudges from wall-mounted and ceiling-mounted screens and their back panels.
Light Fixture and Troffer Lens Cleaning
Light fixture cleaning removes dust, dead insects and film from the lenses, louvers and housings of commercial troffers and surface-mounted lights.
Exposed and Open Ceiling Cleaning
Exposed ceiling cleaning removes dust, cobwebs and grease from everything in an open ceiling: the deck, joists, ducts, pipes, conduit, sprinkler lines and fixtures.
Exhaust Fan Grille Cleaning
Exhaust fan grille cleaning removes the fuzzy gray dust that builds up on ceiling exhaust grilles in restrooms, locker rooms, break rooms and offices.
Ceiling and Wall Speaker Cleaning
Speaker cleaning removes dust and grease from ceiling speaker grilles and wall-mounted speaker cabinets.
Recommended schedule
