In today’s tighter, more efficient homes, air filters don’t do the whole job.
As air circulates though an HVAC system, many airborne microorganisms, odors, and other organics are so small they pass through even the best filtration.
• Today’s tighter homes increase energy efficiency, but are more susceptible to indoor air contamination
• The EPA says the contamination inside a typical home can be 2 to 5 times higher than outdoor air and sometimes more that 100 times higher.
UVPhotoMAX works to get indoor air pollution under control, particularly odors and bio-contaminants, using the disinfection and oxidizing power of UV light and photocatalytic oxidation.
Below are just a few of the pathogens that will be deactivated with UV light.
Bacteria | Pollen | Measles | Tuberculosis |
Viruses | Chicken Pox | Cryptococcus | Fungi |
Ragweed | Adenovirus | Dust mites | Moraxella |
Humidifier Fever | Coxsackievirus | Acinetobacter | Neoformans |
Legionella pneumophila | Microscopic mold spores | Sick Building Syndrome | Microplasma pneuminiae |
Penicillium expensum spores | Stachybotrys atra | Mucor ramosissimus | Mycrobacterium kansasii |
Mycrobacterium aviumintra | Streptococcus pyogenes | Bacillus anthraci | Cornebacterium diptheria |
Serratia marcescens | Neisseria meningitidis | Haemophilus influenzae | Pseudomonas aeruginosa |
