FixtureCare’s Preventive Maintenance Program

In today’s healthcare environment, infection prevention is more critical than ever—especially when it comes to waterborne pathogens like Legionella. The ASHRAE 188 standard outlines key practices for controlling Legionella risk in building water systems, but many facilities struggle with how to apply those standards to their fixtures. That’s where FixtureCare comes in.

What Is FixtureCare?

The FixtureCare preventive maintenance program is designed specifically for healthcare settings, providing a streamlined way to track, manage, and document the servicing of faucets, shower heads, and point-of-use filters. It’s not just about maintenance—it’s about ensuring compliance, improving transparency, and dramatically reducing the workload for facility managers.

Real-Time Tracking and Reporting

With FixtureCare, you can virtually “enter” any room in your facility to view before-and-after photos of serviced fixtures, complete with service timestamps. You’ll gain access to intuitive reports that make inspections easier and more efficient. Real-time project updates, alerts for non-compliant fixtures, and documented service histories are all part of the package—giving managers peace of mind and inspectors exactly what they need.

Why Fixture Hygiene Matters

One often-overlooked risk factor in healthcare settings is calcium buildup on fixtures, which can harbor biofilm and bacteria. Left unchecked, these deposits contribute to the nearly 100,000 healthcare-acquired infection-related deaths reported annually in the U.S. FixtureCare addresses this risk head-on by ensuring regular, thorough cleaning and filter replacements.

Why Laminar Flow Devices Are a Smart Upgrade for Hospital Hygiene

In healthcare settings, maintaining top-tier hygiene is non-negotiable. While most efforts focus on cleaning protocols and surface disinfection, one often-overlooked component can make a big impact: the faucet. Specifically, what’s on the end of it.

A Simple Upgrade with Big Benefits

Non-aerating laminar flow devices are a small but powerful upgrade for hospital faucets. Unlike standard open spouts, these devices act as a protective barrier—blocking contaminants like airborne pathogens or even insects from entering the spout and compromising water quality.

Cutting Down on Contamination at the Sink

Splashing at sinks is more than a nuisance—it’s a potential vector for infection. Laminar flow devices create a clear, non-turbulent stream of water that minimizes splash. This helps reduce the risk of pathogen spread via droplets, which is especially critical in sensitive areas like ICUs and surgical suites.

Supports Disinfection and Prevents Buildup

These devices also enhance the effectiveness of disinfectant-treated water. As water flows through the spout, the laminar stream allows disinfectants to stay in contact with interior surfaces longer, helping reduce calcium buildup and inhibiting microbial growth.

A Practical Step Toward Better Infection Control

In addition to better hygiene and water quality, laminar flow devices offer more precise water control and promote a cleaner, safer environment for both patients and staff. For hospitals seeking simple ways to improve infection prevention, this is an easy win.
