Sanitizing the car: how to do it and what to use

Cars are notoriously an indispensable means of transport for daily private and business mobility. This is why it is necessary to keep the passenger compartment always clean and sanitized, to eliminate any viruses and bacteria that can settle on the vehicle's surfaces. An accurate cleaning of a car's interior is therefore absolutely necessary, and much more important than the external washing. It is not just a matter of aesthetics, but an effective way to take care of your health, to avoid allergies and respiratory problems that arise from mites, germs, and molds. So let's see together how to clean and sanitize the car in the right way, using the most suitable tools to ensure a sterile passenger compartment.
How to clean the car's interior
A car is a bit like our second home. We use it every day to go to work, to take our children to school, or to treat ourselves to an evening out or a well-deserved vacation. A very useful vehicle, which, however, tends to get easily filled with dirt and polluting particles, which in the long run can be harmful to our health. For this reason, deep cleaning and sanitizing the passenger compartment of our car is so important. This involves not only the visible parts like the dashboard and upholstery, but also the most difficult to reach points such as air conditioning ducts.
Before sanitizing the car with the right tools to proceed with sanitization, it is, however, necessary to dedicate oneself to a deep cleaning of the passenger compartment, which includes every internal element. What might seem like a long, not easy, and tiring procedure, however, becomes much simpler and more accurate thanks to a cordless electric broom like the one from Ariete, which will soon become an irreplaceable ally for the periodic cleaning of our vehicle. The digital motor with double suction power and triple filtration system in fact guarantees maximum effectiveness in cleaning, even of the car. In a few easy steps, the cordless vacuum cleaner becomes portable, ideal for vacuuming dust and any residue from the floor mats and upholstery more generally.
Not only that, the effectiveness of this machine is found in the battery life, which reaches up to 35 minutes of non-stop suction. The three brushes supplied, suitable for all types of surfaces, including one dedicated to vacuuming the hair of our four-legged friends, do the rest, freeing the air from impurities and annoying allergens. In addition, the Ariete branded solution is enhanced by the 3-level filtration system, composed of a metal filter, a fabric filter, and a high-efficiency Hepa filter, which allows us to vacuum dust and, at the same time, to release cleaner air in our car.
Car interior sanitization: how to do it the right way
After a meticulous cleaning, it is now time to sanitize the car. There are several methods to proceed with sanitization, which involve the use of chemical detergents, sanitizing sprays, high temperatures, or even active oxygen. The most practical and effective one, however, is the use of a special sanitizer for cleaning environments and surfaces. Ariete has also thought of this with the innovative SaniJet, the first sanitizing nebulizer on the market for domestic use. Compact, handy, and easy to use, it is perfect to always have at hand to sanitize the interiors of both private and company cars.
As we said, using the Sani-Jet sanitizer is very simple: we just need to dissolve a sachet of Sani-Jet Clean, supplied with the product, in tap water, which generates 0.1% active chlorine to ensure perfect sanitization of the car; at this point, we can nebulize the solution directly on the surface we wish to sanitize, directing the special nozzle and choosing the intensity of the jet that is right for us.
For an excellent sanitization of the car's interior, it is advisable to check that the powder dissolved in the tank water immediately takes on a pinkish color, indicating that the solution is active and ready for use. The proportion is one sachet for about 700 cc of water, and with a single refill, we can even sanitize up to 200 sqm of surfaces and environments. Considering that the car has much more contained interiors and therefore the product will tend to be left over, the active solution is kept directly inside the Sani-Jet tank for about 7 days, and in any case as long as the water maintains its pink color.
