Also known by various names such as “upper-room germicidal UV irradiation (UVGI)” and “GUV”. The names may sound complex but the idea and the technology is really quite simple. The purpose of this technology is to help reduce viral and bacterial loads of indoor air by applying germicidal UV light to the upper portion of […]
Germicidal UV light at the 254nm wavelength (in the UV-C band of the electromagnetic spectrum) has been used for decades to kill virus and bacterial pathogens, and it works both for disinfection of drinking water and for disinfecting indoor air. The chemical-free nature of UV disinfection technology is one of the most popular features of […]
