Cleaning
Between patient use, clean and disinfect the surface of the air supply by wiping it down with EPA approved hospital-grade disinfectant wipes or disinfectant cleaner sprayed on a cleaning cloth. Follow disinfectant manufacturer’s directions for dwell time and other instructions for use.
NOTE: DO NOT SPRAY CLEANERS/LIQUIDS DIRECTLY ON THE AIR SUPPLY.
PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
Prior to use, a visual inspection should be performed on the air supply to ensure the power cord is not frayed or nicked and that there is no visual damage that would render the air supply unusable. If any damage is found that would cause the air supply not to function as intended, the air supply should be removed from use and returned to HoverTech International for repair. The air supply has an air filter over the motor housing. This filter can be accessed by removing the three small screws holding the canister to the motor. It is recommended that the air filter is assessed per your facility’s preventive maintenance schedule or annually. Filter should be cleaned if visibly dirty. Remove the filter from the air supply and hold it under warm running water. Allow the air filter to dry prior to placing back in the air supply. The filter should be replaced when it is clogged with debris that does not break free when it is washed. The filter should also be replaced if it begins to lose its shape or deteriorate.
NOTE: IF AIR SUPPLY NEEDS TO BE DISPOSED, CHECK YOUR LOCAL / STATE / FEDERAL / INTERNATIONAL GUIDELINES BEFORE DISPOSAL.
INFECTION CONTROL
When a HoverTech air supply is used in a patient room where isolation
protocols are being observed, the hospital should employ the same
protocols/procedures it utilizes for other equipment used in that patient
room. Between use with an airborne isolation patient, the air supply filter
can be removed and disinfected or replaced if hospital protocol requires. If
the air filter is disinfected, allow it to dry prior to placing back in the
air supply. An air hose cover is available. These covers are disposable and
come in a box of 25 (Model #ASHC).
