the best place to position the device, and how long you need to run it?
Each manufacturer has its own specific recommendations as to what
needs to be done to prepare and disinfect a given area and to protect
staff and patients.
Some vendors may say, thanks for buying our machine, see you
later. So it's important to find someone who's willing to work with you
— to say, the best way to disinfect this room is to run the machine
here for 5 minutes, then over in this corner for 5 minutes, then here
for 5 minutes, and so on. That level of support can make the differ-
ence between a good investment and a bad one.
