The bathroom is a wet room where germs and bacteria can easily multiply. Without regular cleaning, they can spread quickly. The high humidity can cause mould to form more quickly on shower curtains, along joints and in corners. Thorough cleaning and proper ventilation can prevent mould formation.

Bad odours caused by a blocked trap, by the toilet or by dirt impair your well-being. Personal hygiene is more relaxing and more pleasant in a clean bathroom.

Regular maintenance of the sanitary appliances extends their service life and saves repair costs.

Some areas are often overlooked when cleaning the bathroom, even though dirt can accumulate there. These include:

• Door handles and light switches
• Surfaces under and behind the WC
• Toothbrush containers and soap dishes
• Radiators and ventilation units
• Shelves in the mirror cabinet
