Seeking to ‘revolutionise’ the way estates teams countrywide deal with the ACoP L8’s requirement for quarterly de-scaling and deep cleaning of showerheads and hoses, Dupal UK says its L8 Shower system ‘truly is a simple solution’.
The company supplies a showerhead and hose exchange scheme to hospitals, clinics, care homes, student accommodation, and other public facilities. It explained: “The idea of a disposable showerhead is not new; some hospitals already throw away and replace showerheads and hoses every quarter rather than deep cleaning and de-scaling them. Thousands of showerheads being sent to landfill or incinerated at significant financial and environmental cost is something that must change. Our aptly named L8 shower is a simple solution, with proven antibacterial properties, and colour coding for 100% certainty that all units are replaced. Old units are collected back and recycled.
“The system dramatically saves time, reduces risk to both estates teams and patients, satisfies the environmental factor, and works out cheaper than the now old-fashioned method of cleaning. As one recent customer told us: ‘We save so much time compared with the showerhead cleaning we formerly did. The scheme is so practical, well thought-out, and designed to make our job easier.’”
