If a hotel wants to gain recognition from users, a good rest is an important deciding factor. Therefore, hotel linens affect guests' sleep. If the linen is relatively moist, it will make the guests uncomfortable, not soft, or even "dirty." In serious cases, it will cause physical discomfort to the guests and shorten the product's service life. So, what can you do to prevent hotel linens from getting damp? Below, we will share with you how to prevent moisture from entering hotel linens.
- Keep your hotel room dry
In some hotels in southern areas, the air humidity is very high when the weather warms up, and the humidity of hotel linens is also relatively high. Users who often travel for business should have a deep understanding that linen products are very uncomfortable to use on the body. In an environment like this, hotel management can use limestone, charcoal, or moisture absorption boxes and dehumidification bags in the room to absorb moisture. Wrap it in small cloth bags and place it in every corner of the room to keep the air dry. Use it for a period, and then replace it with new dry materials. Especially in rainy weather, it is necessary to dry the room. To ventilate the guest room, we must accurately grasp the time. Noon is the best time to open the windows for ventilation.
- Dry hotel bedding regularly
After I have used the bedding continuously for a period, we should place it in the sun or in a ventilated place to dry according to the characteristics of the bedding fabric and filling. If you pay attention to the humidity of bedding after the rainy season, drying it in the sun can sterilize and dry the bedding and make it soft and fluffy.
So what should we do to remove moisture, prevent mildew, and get rid of "mold"? There are five steps to remove mold: remove the source, change the environment, clean, ventilate, and protect later.
1. Eliminate the source
If mold has appeared on the floor and furniture in the room, you can wipe it with alcohol or a special mildew remover. You can also clean it with diluted bleach. This can effectively remove the mold spots that have formed. Please pay attention to protecting our safety when cleaning. It is recommended that everyone wear plastic gloves and masks.
Wooden furniture, such as wardrobes, should be wiped clean with a dry paper towel or brushed with a dry brush. After cleaning the moldy areas, blow them dry with a fan. It is best to place a desiccant at any time and suck it away. Moisture.
If the linen is moldy, you must find a professional washing manufacturer to perform professional washing and determine whether to replace the linen depending on the washing situation.
2. Change the environment
When the air humidity exceeds 60%, mold will begin to reproduce. Once it reaches 80%, reproduction will be more rapid. Therefore, if we find mold, the humidity should be controlled at around 40%.
There are usually two effective methods for dehumidification: the first is the adsorption method, such as placing desiccant, activated carbon, moisture absorption boxes, moisture absorbers, moisture absorption sticks, etc. in the corners of the room and covering the floor with old newspapers to prevent moisture and absorb moisture; the second is the adsorption method. It is the mechanical method, which uses the functions of dehumidifiers, air conditioners, and other electrical appliances to achieve rapid dehumidification.
3. Clean up
On humid days, especially for the cleaning lady, be sure to clean the furniture, floors, bathrooms, etc., and then wipe them again with a dry cloth or dry mop. After wiping, you can quickly dry them with a fan or air conditioner or mop the floor with warm salt water. It also helps the floor dry quickly.
4. Ventilation
Ventilation depends on the weather. If the room is relatively humid and cold, you should open windows for ventilation to keep the space dry. But on rainy days with high humidity, it is necessary to close the doors and windows tightly and then use tools such as a dehumidifier or air conditioner to achieve the dehumidification effect.
5. Later protection
It is best to regularly check the easily overlooked corners of the house, such as walls, ceilings, plant pots, etc. If signs of mold are found, take measures to solve them as soon as possible.
