* Uses UV, carbon and high efficiency filtration * Quiet fan with three speed control * Purifies air in areas up to 500 square feet * Circuit board monitors lamp and filter life * Visual lamp and filter replacement alerts * Plugs into any standard 120V outlet The UV-Aire operates continuously to attack airborne contaminants. Microorganisms, including mold, bacteria, viruses, and fungi are sterilized or eliminated by continuous exposure to the UV rays. UV’s effectiveness in killing bacteria is directly related to a microorganism’s exposure time. Properly positioned, an ultraviolet system can significantly reduce indoor air contamination and prevent the growth of new microorganisms. FILTER SYSTEMS ALONE DON'T SOLVE THE PROBLEM The majority of indoor air is conditioned by forced-air heating and cooling (HVAC) systems. Standard fiber air filters are entirely ineffective in trapping germs, as most particles are simply too small, passing through the porous filter. New, high efficiency style filters will only capture airborne bacteria down to a certain size. These high efficiency filters are nominally effective, trapping small airborne contaminants on the filter, creating a breeding ground where germs can continue to grow and multiply. HVAC systems are a dark and damp breeding ground for mold and bacteria, particularly at the system filter and air conditioning A-coil. The buildup of matter on the A-coil and filter can significantly reduce the efficiency of the appliance by constricting and reducing air flow. This means increased cost to the homeowner in addition to the risk of airborne pollutants. (Fields controls uv-aire air purifying system uv-500C is the responsibility of Freida Owen) |
