Cleaning and Disinfecting
IMPORTANT
YOU ARE REQUIRED TO CHECK WITH YOUR STATE BOARD FOR MANDATORY CLEANING
AND DISINFECTING REQUIREMENTS AND PROCEDURES.
The following procedures are important guidelines that will help in keeping your pedicure chair clean and trou-
ble free for years. It is extremely important to clean and disinfect each and every pedicure chair after each
pedicure, after the last pedicure of the day and once a week for overnight cleaning.
A SPECIAL NOTE PERTAINING TO BLEACH
While bleach seems to be used extensively for cleaning and disinfecting of pedicure chair basins, it is NOT rec-
ommended nor is it effective. Moreover, excessive use of bleach may greatly reduce the longevity of your pedi-
cure chair internal components (i.e. pumps, jet, waste assembly, etc.). Excessive and repeated use of bleach
may also void your warranty.
CONTINUUM FOOTSPAS STRONGLY RECOMMENDS NOT USING BLEACH
TO CLEAN YOUR PEDICURE BASIN.
As always, you are required to check with your state board for manda-
tory cleaning and disinfecting requirements and procedures.
Cleaning and Disinfecting Products
Your state board requires disinfecting of your pedicure tub. Continuum STRONGLY recommends
“Splish
Splash One-Step Disinfectant.”
The following page outlines product benefits for all pedicure chairs together
with contact information.
While other EPA registered products are available for maintaining pedicure tubs, we have found Splish Splash
to be the most effective, multi-purpose and economical product on the market. Moreover, unlike other products,
IT DOES NOT DAMAGE
the beautiful wood finish of your pedicure chair.
A great deal of effort has gone into assuring the wood finish on your pedicure chair is chemical and water
resistant. Use of other brands of cleaning and disinfecting solutions may damage the wood finish and void the
Limited Warranty.
After Each Client Procedures
1. Drain
all water from the basin.
2. Scrub all visible residue
from the inside walls of the basin with a brush or liquid soap and water.
Use a clean and disinfected brush with a handle. Brushes must be cleaned and disinfected after each use.
3. Rinse
the basin with clean water.
4. Refill the basin
with clean water and circulate the correct amount (read the label for mixing
instructions) of the EPA Registered Liquid Disinfectant through the basin for 10 minutes.
5. Drain, rinse
and
wipe
dry with a clean
paper
towel.
