(Abingdon, Virginia) The Martha Washington Inn & Spa is recognized as a leader in the field for hospitality and service quality, and the safety and well-being of guests and team member associates are paramount. To that end, Abingdon’s Historic landmark and Luxury Spa is pleased to announce the installation of an air purification system that leads the field in performance and reputation for excellence.
“This high-tech system will give guests just another reason to breathe easy while enjoying treatments at The Spa,” said Spa Director Cynthia Childers. The Spa at The Martha offers the finest products and treatments, meticulous attention to detail, and the hospitality and service for which the resort has always been noted. The Spa has been voted a Top 10 Resort Spas in Virginia.
How The Air Purification System Works Earlier this year, The Martha’s HVAC service provider recommended Charlotte-based Global Plasma Solutions, a leader in the field of indoor air quality, which utilizes needlepoint bipolar ionization (NPBITM) air purification technology to deliver clean indoor air. GPS’ NPBI technology is safe and free of ozone and other harmful byproducts. Using NPBI, GPS products improve the air by reducing airborne particulates, odors and pathogens. The combined effect is air that is cleaner and safer to breathe.
Recent tests with Aviation Clean Air demonstrated a 99.9% reduction rate on a static SARS- CoV-2 (COVID-19) surface strain within 30 minutes, the first instance in which an air purification company has effectively neutralized SARS-CoV-2.
Charles Waddell, Founder and Chief Technology Officer of Global Plasma Solutions, remarked “This is a clear indication that NPBI is the gold standard in indoor air purification.” He continued “From commercial buildings and schools, to hospitals and hotels, delivering a cleaner, safer indoor air environment will only become increasingly important.
NPBI technology leverages an electronic charge to create a high concentration of positive and negative ions that travel through the air, continuously seeking out and attaching to particles and disrupting the surface proteins of pathogens, rendering them inactive.
The system will be placed strategically throughout The Spa to ensure all spa, fitness and pool facilities are covered. “Anything and everything we can do to keep people safe is worth the extra effort and expense” said Childers. “I’m very pleased The Martha Washington Inn & Spa is taking these steps, and yes, we will still ask for all to wear masks when roaming our historic corridors and receiving treatments at The Spa.”
