Flush Toilet Properly
Adjust font size:
To prevent the spread of atypical pneumonia, it is very important to keep the toilet clean.

Clean toilets at least once a day with a solution of diluted household bleach (1 part bleach mixed with 99 parts water).

When using the toilet, it is essential to observe hygienic practices:

  • Dispose of used toilet paper in the toilet bowl.
  • Before flushing, lower the toilet lid to prevent contaminated water from splashing out.
  • Flush the toilet.
  • When flushing has stopped, raise the lid.
  • Wipe the rim, seat and lid with a cloth soaked in the diluted bleach solution. Rinse clean with water. Wipe dry.
  • Pour a teaspoon of the diluted bleach solution into the toilet bowl.
  • Wash hands thoroughly with liquid soap. Dry hands with a disposable towel.

Floor drain inlets:

  • Clean the floor drain inlets daily.
  • Pour about half a liter of water down drain inlets to ensure the air trap is not dry.
  • Pour a teaspoonful of diluted bleach solution down the drain.
  • After 5 minutes, pour clean water down the drain.

Unless otherwise instructed, only use a diluted bleach solution to avoid damaging pipes and drains.
