UV Light Improves Indoor Air Quality

Improve Your Indoor Air Quality

For years hospitals have used ultraviolet (UV) lights on large, industrial-grade machines to decontaminate rooms. Currently, they are sending robots armed with UV lights into hospital rooms to neutralize and remove dangerous airborne pathogens. But did you know that versions of those same UV sanitation lights are available to consumers as well? The HomeShield UV Purification System can be a life-saving addition to your home’s HVAC system that can remove indoor contaminants. Installing this medically-grade, cost-effective UV light to your current HVAC system can emit germicidal radiation into the surrounding air and keep your home free of dust particles, mold spores, animal hair, dander, pollen, dust mites, viruses and bacteria. The HomeShield UV Purification System is an effective method of purifying your indoor air quality so you can breathe easy and reduce the effects of seasonal allergies and other health issues and ensure healthier air in your home.

Ultraviolet light (UV) is part of the electromagnetic (EM) spectrum, which is organized based on wavelength and frequencies. The frequency of UV wavelengths ranges from 180 nanometers (nm) to 400 nm, falling between visible light and X-rays on the EM spectrum. About 10% of the light from the sun is UV light. The UV spectrum is divided into three categories: UVA, UVB, and UVC. UVA has the longest wavelengths (315-400 nm) and UVC has the shortest (180-200 nm).

The lights used in the HomeShield™ UV Purification System work on the UVC spectrum. UVC radiation can break chemical bonds in a process called photoionization in which electrons separate from atoms. This process results in a dissociation of matter into electrically charged particles and can kill airborne viruses without harming humans. In a recent study published in Scientific Reports it suggests that the use of UVC lights in hospitals, doctors’ offices, schools, airports, airplanes, and other public spaces could help control the spread of airborne-mediated microbial diseases. Now this cutting-edge technology is available to you the homeowner as a way to help diminish the spread of those same infectious diseases in your home.

clean air, using UV light technology

The HomeShield™ Ultraviolet Light Air Purification System is able to physically alter microorganisms through sterilization, stopping the spread and propagation as it intercepts the airborne pathogens that may travel through your home’s HVAC system. These microorganisms cannot reproduce when properly exposed to UV light and this powerful solution will dramatically improve your home’s indoor air quality. This is a chemical-free way to disinfect your home’s air and is a safe, proactive, and cost-effective method of ensuring greater health for your family.
