System and method for cleaning restrooms
A preferred embodiment of a system for cleaning a restroom includes a pump for pressurizing a fluid, and a spray device in fluid communication with the pump. The spray device has a nozzle for discharging a stream of the fluid. The system also includes a stand for supporting the spray device within an enclosure of the restroom while the spray device discharges the stream at an interior surface of the enclosure, and a cover for suspending the spray device in a holding tank of the restroom while the spray device discharges the stream at an interior surface of the holding tank.
1. A system for cleaning a restroom having an enclosure with a seat hingedly mounted to a holding tank, the system comprising:
a pump for pressurizing a fluid;
a spray device in fluid communication with the pump, the spray device comprising a nozzle for discharging a stream of the fluid;
a stand for supporting the spray device within the enclosure of the restroom while the spray device discharges the stream at an interior surface of the enclosure;
a substantially planar cover for closing and isolating an interior of the holding tank and for suspending the spray device in the holding tank of the restroom while the spray device discharges the stream at the interior surface of the holding tank; and
a wand for evacuating the fluid from the holding tank while the spray device discharges the stream at the interior surface of the holding tank.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the wand extends through a penetration formed in the cover.
3. The system of claim 1 , further comprising a substantially transparent hose connected on a first end to the wand and connected on a second end to a vacuum source.
4. A system for cleaning a restroom having an enclosure with a seat hingedly mounted to a holding tank, the system comprising:
a pump for pressurizing a fluid;
a spray device in fluid communication with the pump, the spray device comprising a nozzle for discharging a stream of the fluid;
a stand for supporting the spray device within the enclosure of the restroom while the spray device discharges the stream at an interior surface of the enclosure;
a substantially planar cover for closing and isolating an interior of the holding tank and for suspending the spray device in the holding tank of the restroom while the spray device discharges the stream at the interior surface of the holding tank;
tubing secured to the cover, wherein the spray device is suspended from the cover by the tubing and receives the fluid by way of the tubing while the spray device discharges the stream at the interior surface of the holding tank; and
a wand for evacuating the holding tank while the spray device discharges the stream at the interior surface of the holding tank, wherein the wand extends through a first penetration in the cover and the tubing extends through a second penetration in the cover so that the fluid can be introduced into and removed from the holding tank simultaneously.
5. A kit for cleaning a restroom, comprising:
a pumping device;
a spray device;
tubing for directing fluid from the pumping device to the spray device;
a cover capable of being installed over an opening in a holding tank of the restroom for substantially closing the holding tank opening and supporting the spray device in the holding tank beneath the cover;
a stand capable of being placed on a surface within an enclosure of the restroom and supporting the spray device in an elevated position within the enclosure; and
a vacuum wand for evacuating the fluid from the holding tank.
6. The kit of claim 5 , further comprising tubing secured to the cover for suspending the spray device beneath the cover and a vacuum wand for evacuating the holding tank, wherein the vacuum wand extends through a first penetration in the cover and the tubing secured to the cover for suspending the spray device from the cover extends through a second penetration in the cover.
7. The kit of claim 5 further comprising a substantially transparent hose for placing the wand in fluid communication with a vacuum source.
8. A system for cleaning a restroom comprising:
a pump for pressurizing a fluid;
a spray device in fluid communication with the pump, the spray device comprising a nozzle for discharging a stream of the fluid;
a stand for supporting the spray device within an enclosure of the restroom while the spray device discharges the stream at an interior surface of an enclosure;
a cover for suspending the spray device in a holding tank of the restroom while the spray device discharges the stream at an interior surface of the holding tank; and
a wand for evacuating the holding tank while the spray device discharges the stream at the interior surface of the holding tank, the wand extending through a penetration formed in the cover.
9. The system for cleaning a restroom described in claim 8 , further comprising tubing secured to the cover wherein the spray device is suspended from the cover by the tubing and receives the fluid by way of the tubing.
10. The system for cleaning a restroom described in claim 9 , wherein the wand extends through a first penetration in the cover and the tubing extends through a second penetration in the cover so that the fluid can be introduced into and removed from the holding tank simultaneously.
