Routine Cleaning Procedures in Homes The following are recommendations for routine cleaning of minimal dust accumulation or a light coating of dust:
Hard Surfaces and \on-Porous Materials • Use a wet/damp cloth or wet/damp mop; or • A high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) vacuum can also be used before wet wiping; • DO NOT USE a broom, dust, or regular vacuum cleaner. A regular vacuum cleaner bag may throw the smaller dust particles from these surfaces into the air.
Carpets, Upholstery, and Other Materials that Cannot Be Cleaned with Wet Wiping • Use a UEPA vacuum only; • Wash fabrics with heavy accumulations of dust two times; and • If you do not have a HEPA vacuum, ask your building management company for one. Additionally, the Red Cross may be able to provide financial assistance to you (if you live below Canal Street) for the purchase of a HEPA vacuum. For more information, call the Red Cross Disaster Relief Help Line at (877) 746- 4987.
Disposal of Materials • Dispose of waste water in sink or toilet; • Wash dirts mop heads or cleaning cloths intended for reuse separately from regular laundry; wash these materials after each use; and • Place damp'wet disposable materials in plastic bags for disposal.
