DID YOU KNOW?
WHAT
ODORS ARE?
Did You Know?
1.) Odors are gases. Composed of molecules.
2.) Odors in nursing homes and
other medical environments typically contain ammonia and other organic
bacterial compounds.
3.) Odor molecules have positive
charged ions.
How are Odors Differentiated?
Did You Know?
1.)
An olfactory
membrane at the end of our nasal passages has thousands of hair-like cilia,
each with many nerve receptors.
2.)
Odor molecules
with unique shapes enter sockets in these receptors.
3.)
The cilia send
nerve impulses to the brain, enabling us to identify the odor.
What are Your Choices in Dealing with Odor?
Did You Know?
1.)
Masking
Agents—like perfumes—overpower a malodor with a stronger, more pleasant
fragrance.
2.)
They fool the
brain.
3.)
Provide immediate relief.
4.)
They’re
inexpensive.
The Bad News?
1.)
They wear off
quickly.
2.)
Can combine to
be worse than the original smell.
Neutralizers are a more effective method.
1.)
Chemicals
interactions change the size and shape of odor molecules, making them unable to
fit into nasal receptors.
2.)
They provide
long-term relief.
The Bad News?
1.)
Neutralization
takes longer to work.
2.)
May require
aromatherapy to handle odors in early stages.
De-Odor Rod Purification---The
most effective method!!
1.)
Relies upon ion
exchange to pull malodorous molecules out of the air.
2.)
Collects and
absorbs odors at the source before they spread throughout the facility.
3.)
Completely
natural, silent, unobtrusive.
4.)
Rechargeable
with natural sunshine.
5.)
No masking odors
or liquid chemicals.
The De-Odor Rod is Environmentally Safe
Poor Indoor Air Quality is a
National Concern
a.)
29% of
non-hospital healthcare management reports odor as a quality issue.
b.)
A quarter of the
nation’s hospitals agree.
The De-Odor Rod complies with EPA regulations
The De-Odor Rod uses envirolites--- natural, inert, volcanic non-toxic mineral
substances—to create an ionic zone that permits air purification.
With Staff Costs Rising, De-Odor
Rod Use Helps Keep Your Environmental Staff Productive.
1.)
Fewer staff
hours spent on odor control.
2.)
More time on
critical patient care cleanliness problems.
3.)
No special
skills needed to install and maintain rods.
4.)
Staff can take
pride in long-term solutions and enjoy results of De-Odor Rod effectiveness.
De-Odor
Rods Come Well Recommended!!
1.)
In EPA
Compliance.
2.)
USDA Approved as
an absorbent in food processing.
3.)
4.)
Client Letters
of Recommendation Available.
5.)
MSDS forms available upon request.
Recommended Applications for De-Odor Rods….
We are familiar with most odor
control needs and can quickly advise you on the most efficient installation.
Problem odor areas may require custom
solutions—our experts can analyze and correct these situations.
A De-Odor Rod test kit for a
soiled utility room is available and will answer most of your questions..
Note: If De-Odor Rods are placed properly a natural ionic action will take place and a ionic zone will form attracting and absorbing ammonia and gaseous fumes without use of artificial fragrances. These rods will need recharging bimonthly using natural sunshine.
