What Causes Upper Respiratory Infections?
You get an upper respiratory infection when a virus (or bacteria) enters your respiratory system. For example, you might touch an infected surface or shake hands with a person who’s sick. You then touch your mouth, nose or eyes. The germs from your hands enter and infect your body
Two of the most common medical issues facing offshore works is: –
- Upper Respiratory Infection? (URI)
- Acute URI
Is a contagious infection of your upper respiratory tract. Your upper respiratory tract includes the nose, throat, pharynx, larynx, and bronchi.
What Is An Upper Respiratory Infection?
These infections affect your sinuses and throat. Upper respiratory infections include: Common Cold / Epiglottitis / Laryngitis / Sore Throat / Sinus Infection.
Are Upper Respiratory Infections Contagious?
Yes, upper respiratory infections are contagious. They pass from person to person through respiratory droplets or hand-to-hand contact. People who have an upper respiratory infection can pass it to others through:
Sneezing or coughing without covering their nose and mouth. This sprays germs into the air. Other people can breathe in those germ-filled droplets.
Sneezing or coughing into their hand and then touching someone else’s hand. The droplets are now on the other person’s hand. When that person touches their nose, mouth or eyes, the infection enters their body.

Why Use Zeffer Air Purification Gel
It’s made from 100% pharmaceutical grade Australian Tea Tree Oil (TTO), and is processed into Tea Tree Oil Gel or Liquid.
- Is an organic, biodegradable and environmentally friendly air purifier.
- Controls microbes far better than any mechanical filter system, HEPA / ULPA or otherwise.
- Formula is essential to allow the TTO molecules to evaporate and become airborne once activated.
- Once it is vaporised and in the air, any surface or objects it lands on it will protect. It will eliminate the potential threat from bacteria and viruses.
Common Causes of Mould in HVAC Systems
During warmer seasons, cooler air is being piped through vents and sometimes moisture will condensate along the sides of the ductwork. This warm, dark, dusty environment provides an excellent breeding ground for mould.
If you have, or think you might have, a mould problem on your Offshore Drilling Rigs / Drill Ships / Crude Tankers & FPSO you need to check for hidden mould. While some mould may be easy to spot, it can be hard to find mold in places like Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning Ducts or inside walls. If you’ve got a mould problem, though, it’s important to make sure you find and remove all mould, otherwise the problem will just continue to get worse. You’re wasting your time and money if you only remove the visible mold but allow the unseen mold to continue to grow and spread. IAQ Have qualified offshore inspectors.
Dangers of Mould
- Why Does Mould Have A Musty Smell?
Mould produces gasses called microbial volatile organic compounds (MVOC). Many of these gasses are odorless but some have a musty odor, the smell typically associated with mold. If you notice a musty odor in your air quality you probably have mold growing there, even if you don’t see any mould. Mold often grows in hidden places, like inside walls, under carpets, and inside heating and ventilation ducts.
- Dangers of Mould
What are the dangers of mould in your work place, and how should these dangers be addressed? As moulds grow and their colonies develop, they release toxins and other byproducts into your indoor air environment. These mold toxins and byproducts can be the direct cause of many diverse health issues in humans and animals alike.
- Causes of Mould
There are many different events that can cause a mould problem. Typically the one thing that causes mould growth involves an unwanted or uncontrolled moisture presence in the AHU System, since all types of mould require moisture in order to grow and spread.
- Finding Hidden Mould
You should always have a professional come in and test for mould. If a problem exists, by catching mould early, you can prevent a problem from getting out of control. IAQ Have Qualified Offshore Inspectors.
Contamination in Hvac Systems
Many studies have proven that the heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems can become contaminated with organic pollutants, bacteria, and fungi, as well as by particulate matter derived from mice, insects, and nematodes.
Since the ducting systems confect’s all rooms in the building, if building’s central HVAC system is contaminated, bacteria will continue to grow in the ductwork and circulate in the airflow, spreading to every area.
If you have your HVAC system regularly maintained, this is no guarantee of preventing future outbreaks. One good example of this is Cruise Ships!
