Visiting the bathroom is an everyday matter and being careless about bathroom hygiene may be hazardous to health. From the bacteria lurking on door knobs, basins to the toilet interior and seat itself, a bathroom visit can be quite a hygienic challenge – and falling sick is never fun.
Dangerous strains of bacteria such as Escherichia coli (E. coli), an intestine-affecting virus, can thrive in a bathroom environment where fecal matter is aerosolized with every toilet flush, causing any bathroom-user to fall sick. One of the symptoms include severe diarrhea – the second leading cause of death for children under 5 years old, cited by the World Health Organization.
As such, going touch-free with automated cleansing feature, sensor faucet and jet air hand dryer are good moves to reduce hand contact and combat bacteria. Especially in this case, E. coli bacteria easily travels from person to person, largely when infected adults and children do not wash their hands properly.
Now, how about the toilet surfaces you do not come into contact with? As the toilet can be a hotbed of diseases, what you know between safe and unsafe bathrooms can spell the difference between sickness and health.
Spare yourself the headache of severe diarrhea, flu or other infections by arming the bathrooms in your home with HygieneClean System by American Standard – a bundle of revolutionary technologies and innovations that assure your bathrooms to be safe, clean and hygienic.
