CLEANING THE CARDIATEK SYSTEM
CLEANING PROCESS
The Cardiatek Bracket, Wall Mount and Floor Mount can be cleaned by using a pressure washer. The mounting bracket
and system may show some signs of oxidation or discoloration from continuous washing, however, degradation of the
cot/stretcher’s performance or functionality will not be affected due to power washing if cleaning instructions are
properly followed.
The material used to manufacture the Cardiatek System is high-grade aluminum, it is very durable and resistant to
corrosion, however high levels of sodium or a high concentration of sodium or acid may prematurely corrode the
product. Always rinse with soft soap and water if exposed.
