Tips to Keep Your Construction Site Porta Potty Cooler This Summer
How time flies! The hot summer is really here. While our summers are really hot, outdoor businesses like construction projects need to keep going.
Every construction site should use portable restrooms to maintain sanitation requirements and meet deadlines. However, comfort is still key. Therefore, you’ll want to follow the following guidelines for keeping your restroom space for your construction site cooler this summer.
Find a Naturally Cool Area
Keeping your porta potty comfortable starts with general placement. If possible, avoid installing your portable restrooms in an area with a lot of direct sunlight. Standard units can quickly become an oven and make restroom breaks unbearable.
When placing your portable restrooms, make sure to do so in a shaded area with flat, even ground for maximum comfort. Even if your site doesn’t have natural shade to help cool down your porta potties, invest in a temporary tent to help stave off the sun during work hours.
Place Portable Restrooms in a Ventilated Space
Aside from general shade, ventilation is necessary for keeping your restroom cool. All portable restrooms come with built-in ventilation slits. but without regular air flow, they’re rendered useless. Before finalizing a spot for your restrooms you should discern the best possible spot for airflow to your restroom.
Crack the Door Open When Possible
If possible, ask your site workers to leave the entrance to the porta-potty open a crack between use. Even a little extra ventilation can make your restrooms significantly cooler for the next person who uses them.
