UV technology has been used by hospitals for decades to sanitize air and surfaces, but this technology is also effective in commercial and industrial settings. In the wake of COVID-19, air disinfection is more important than ever, which is why Miller Lighting offers a variety of accessible and easy-to-use UV air disinfection systems that target all pathogens.
How Do UV Air Disinfection Systems Work?
You don’t need special qualifications to operate this UV sanitization machine. After a quick initial training and program, the machine does most of the work itself. Here’s how this technology works:
- The GUV sanitization method uses short-wavelength ultraviolet (ultraviolet C or UV-C) light to kill or inactivate microorganisms.
- They do this by destroying nucleic acids and disrupting their DNA, leaving them unable to perform vital cellular function.
- The entire ultraviolet (UV) spectrum can kill or inactivate microorganisms, but UV-C energy provides the most germicidal effect.
- So far, all pathogens and viruses respond to UV light, including COVID-19.
- At Miller Lighting, we offer a free Viral Irradiation Room Analysis (VIRA) to determine appropriate minimum irradiation time requirements to inactivate 99.9% of viruses.
- Certain UV systems like the OMNI can disinfect both air and surfaces using this technology. These systems combine UV technology with venting for maximum air flow and sanitization.
Miller Lighting and UV Air Disinfection Systems
While hospitals have been using this technology for decades, Miller Lighting understands the importance of UV sanitization for businesses, restaurants, schools, and more. Some workspaces find it difficult to keep six feet of distance between employees, and many places see a heavy flow of customer traffic. Having a safe and easy-to-use sanitization method that targets pathogens can make all the difference when it comes to keeping everyone healthy. We optimize sanitization on a customizable level for every client, offering a free Viral Irradiation Room Analysis (VIRA) to determine which system will work best for you.
