Innovative Technologies Keep Schools Open
Aguair’s Sanitization Solutions
Help Students Stay in the Classroom
Teachers, parents, and students are
dreaming of the day when classrooms
can stay open safely without the fear of
the pandemic.  To help make this a reality, educational institutions are searching for innovative technologies and
turning to unconventional disinfection
solutions.  Georgia-based Aguair LLC
manufactures several systems that are
perfect for continuous whole-school
sanitization.
“With SaniCart™, you roll in the machine and completely sanitize everything in the room in just 20 minutes.
The science behind the fogging machine gets the disinfectant on every
surface… We initially had a whole layer
of staff disinfecting, now we just have
one person working the SaniCart™,”
says Mike Wurm, the Executive Director of Boys and Girls Club locations
where SaniCart™ is being used.   
When the pandemic began, the staff
of Boys and Girls Club centers would
bleach down all surfaces in their daycare centers every two hours. Furthermore, he’s noticed that “because of the
dry-fog, we are no longer worried about
electronics getting wet in our computer
labs when we sanitize.”  
SaniCart™ is one of many revolutionary
sanitization technologies from Aguair.
When the Covid-19 pandemic hit, Aguair’s engineering team envisioned how
their equipment for the perishable
foods industries could help other facilities operate safely.  Aguair’s SaniCart™
and ClensAir™ systems, originally designed to disinfect large greenhouses,
processing plants, and storage facilities,
are now being brought into medical facilities, office buildings, government spaces, grocery stores, movie theaters and
studios, and especially classrooms.  
The SaniCart™ is a mobile, micro-fogger that
is compatible with several disinfectants for
air and surface sanitization. It emits a dry fog
that disinfects even hard-to-reach surfaces.
The SaniCart™ provides the benefits of
traditional electrostatic spraying without
the need to wipe down and is available as a
rolling cart and a backpack model.
“The convenience aspect of SaniCart™ is huge,” says Harman Bains of
the Lyon County School District. This
Nevada school district is one of the
numerous districts with Aguair’s sanitization equipment. The ease of the
SaniCart™ design lets the custodial
team roll the unit throughout the buildings to sanitize air and surfaces with a
dry micro-fog. Since the surfaces do
not need to be wiped down after being fogged, the whole school is sanitized in no time.
Many school districts have purchased ClensAir™ air purifiers for each
of their nurse’s offices. The system
provides the most efficient airflow and
pathogen inactivation in indoor spaces.
“We placed ClensAir™ above doors to
keep the air clean, as kids who might
not be feeling well come in and out of
the nurse’s offices,” adds Harman.
School districts around the country are
looking to equip each classroom with
a ClensAir™ unit. This could prevent
the airborne spread of bacteria and vi-

ruses and help keep teachers and students stay safe, thereby ensuring that
schools are able to remain open.
The SaniCart™ and ClensAir™ systems have been instrumental in helping the Lyons County School System
through this challenging time. Since
the schools operate on a tight budget, Bains thanks a local foundation
for providing the necessary funding.
“The foundation’s generosity will not
only help fight this pandemic in our
schools today but will continue to
make a positive impact on our students’ lives for years and even decades to come.”
Aguair is pleased to play a part in
helping schools, medical offices, government spaces, retailers, and other
industries continue to function safely. Aguair’s engineering team is constantly innovating so everyone can
return to a sense of normalcy, safely.
The ClensAir™ and SaniCart™ systems are two innovative solutions to
this complex problem.
ClensAir™ is an air purifying system that uses
a six-stage air sanitization process including
technology that was developed for NASA. The
unit consists of specialized filters, ultraviolet
and photocatalytic lamps, and a surface
decontaminant. Independent lab tests have
shown ClensAir™ to be more than 99.98%
effective in removing viruses and bacteria.
