THE REALITY OF INDOOR AIR
IN TODAY’S MODERN WORLD:
• Indoor air is 80-100 times more polluted.
• 80% of air conditioned air is re-circulated.
• People spend 90% of their time indoors.
• Indoor air is always full of contaminants such as bacteria,
viruses, moulds, mildew and toxic gases.

THE REALITY OF INDOOR AIR
• Infection is spread namely contact and inhalation.
• The conventional method has been surface
cleaning and hand washing.
• Currently nothing is done to reduce the risks from
airborne micro-organisms.

Who is at risk of contracting TB or
other airborne diseases ?
• Personnel who are in close contact with persons who have
undiagnosed active tuberculosis or other airborne diseases.
• Managers and employees who serve customers on a day
to day basis.
• Individuals with a very weakened immune system.

The benefits of a UVGI system
• UV- C is effective against the most minute of airborne contaminants.
• UV-C does not depend on perfect air seals to be effective.
• UV-C destroys rather than traps airborne pathogens.
• UV-C does not degrade in damp/humid environments.
• UV-C leaves no residual chemicals.
• UV-C is inexpensive to operate and maintain. •• UV-C can be used in conjunction with other types of cleaning systems.
• Suitable for existing or new buildings.

UV – What is it?
• It is an invisible wavelength of light (254nm).
• Ultra-Violet radiation is part of the electronic spectrum
between visible light and x-rays.
• Lamps containing mercury vapour emit
UV when an electrical current is passed through.

Induct Sterile Air Technology
“Clean coils reduce the pressure drop, improve the
heat transfer and increase the systems capacity
resulting in energy savings. The use of UVGI technology
can result in a 15-30% improvement in energy use and
coils that are free of mold and organic build up without any
use of chemical cleaning.”
