How Ultraviolet Light Works
Ultraviolet light possesses just the right amount of energy to break organic molecular bonds. As
micro-organisms pass by the UV rays radiated from the ultraviolet lamp, this bond breakage translates
into cellular or genetic damage for micro-organisms, such as germs, viruses, bacteria, fungi (like
molds), etc. This results in the destruction of the micro-organisms.

UV Light Air Purifier Facts & Studies
- The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommends the use of ultraviolet light.
- The U.S. government now specifies that UV light should be used in all handling units to
improve indoor air quality in government buildings, by controlling airborne and surface
microbial growth.
- The Air Institute of Respiratory Education suggests UV lights be used in buildings for indoor
air quality purposes, and states that may be the final line of defense against those diseases
that have developed resistance to drugs, such as tuberculosis and others.
- According to the Aerobiological Engineering Department at Penn State University, the
ultraviolet component of sunlight is the main reason microbes die in the outdoor air. The die-off
rate in the outdoors varies from one pathogen to another, but can be anywhere from a few
seconds to a few minutes for a 90-99% kill of viruses or contagious bacteria.
- The Centers of Disease Control (CDC) recommends UV lights in homeless shelters to
prevent the spread of disease, particularly tuberculosis (TB).
- A study by Air & Waste Management Association found the combination of a HEPA air filter
and germicidal UV lamp reduced bacteria by 80% in a 3072 cubic foot chamber.
Destroys micro-organisms. UV light is scientifically proven to destroy viruses, germs, bacteria, fungi
(including mold), etc.
Reduces illnesses and disease. UV light has been used for years by the medical field to sanitize
rooms and equipment, and to prevent the spread of illness and disease.
Recommended by the Centers for Disease Control for its ability to destroy biological pollutants.
