The Power of Sunlight
UV-Aire uses the energy from a specially designed, high-intensity UV-C lamp to reduce microorganisms that cycle through a home's HVAC system. Mounted inside the ductwork with an external control switch, UV-Aire sterilizes contaminants as they pass by the lamp. The process requires very little maintenance and costs just pennies a day to operate. For more than 50 years, scientists have known that one of the most effective sterilizers of airborne contaminants is natural sunlight. Not the light we see when we look out the window, but the invisible ultraviolet rays. The most powerful part of the UV wave is called the "C" band, and that's what UV-Aire uses to destroy and reduce microorganisms in the air. Healthy Air The UV-Aire Purifying System is a safe, silent, and proven way to make your home a healthier place. UV has been proven effective in hospitals, schools, daycare centers, restaurants and hotels. Now, with UV-Aire, this technology is available for for residential applications.
Installation:
For best results, the UV-Aire should be installed downstream of the air conditioning coil in the supply. Alternately, it can be positioned downstream of the air filter in the return. For maximum effectiveness, it can be installed in both locations. Your contractor can recommend the best location for your home. For maximum safety and effectiveness, the UV-Aire should only be installed by a licensed contractor. What You Don't Know Can Hurt You The air circulating in the ductwork of your home may be some of the poorest quality anywhere. Molds, bacteria, yeasts, dust mites, and viruses could be present in every breath you take. You fill your lungs up to 20,000 times each day. Over time, these contaminants become concentrated causing allergies, inflammation of the mucous membrane, upper respiratory problems, asthmatic conditions, headaches and even flu-like symptoms. Facts
Indoor air can contain up to 100 times the contaminants that outside air contains. Poor indoor air quality costs North Americans over $100 billion each year in health care, absenteeism, lost production and lost revenue. 65 to 75 percent of infections and allergy sources are passed from person to person through the air . Airborne contaminants cause diseases such as influenza, hepatitis, tuberculosis and pneumonia.
