The Ultraviolet (UV) component of sunlight is the main reason microbes die in outdoor air. The use of ultraviolet germicidal light for sterilization of micro-organisms has been studied since the 1930's. Microbes are vulnerable to the effects of light at the wavelengths at or near 253.7 nm. At that wavelength UV light has the right amount of energy to break bonds or genetically damage microorganisms. UV systems have much more concentrated levels of UV energy than are found in sunlight.
Mold contamination can actually be found lining your heating and AC systems duct work. Ultraviolet Germicidal (UVC) light can help remove airborne populations of mold, bacteria and viruses in your home.
Properly designed UV system installations have proven highly effective in homes, hospitals, schools, ect.
ACW (UVC) lamps are 253.7 nm. of light, optimal for air and surface disinfection. All microorganisms are susceptible to (UVC) light at different rate constants.
