"UV Air Cleaners & UV Air Purifiers are Now Required By The U.S. Government To Be Installed In Government Building HVAC Systems As Protection Against Airborne Germs, Bacteria, Viruses and Mold."

According to the American Medical Association, 50% of all illnesses are caused or aggravated by polluted indoor air. The air in today's homes and buildings can contain different organic contaminants such as bacteria, viruses, mold, fungi, and spores that contribute to:

  • Respiratory Allergies
  • Asthma
  • Frequent Cold and Flu
  • Headaches
  • Runny Nose
  • Itchy, Watery Eyes
  • Sinus Irritation
  • Sore Throat
  • Fatigue
  • Headaches
  • Fibromyalgia
  • Aspergillosis
  • Tuberculosis
  • Bronchitis
  • Dizziness
  • Skin Irritation
  • Nausea
  • Measles
  • Chicken Pox
  • Legionnaires' Disease

Ultraviolet (UV) light is one of the more effective methods to reduce and control airborne pathogens. For this reason, ultraviolet purifiers are commonly used in hospitals. As contaminated air is passed through intense ultraviolet light, bacteria, viruses, and some organic compounds are destroyed. In short, the ultraviolet light damages the DNA of microorganisms and renders them harmless and unable to reproduce. Ultraviolet light is used in much the same way for water purification systems. Because viruses are too small to be trapped by HEPA filters, ultraviolet light is one of the only ways to eliminate airborne viruses.

A basic characteristic of UV lamps is that the larger the lamp, the greater the output of ultraviolet germicidal irradiation (UVGI). However, larger or longer UV lamps that create ozone can also produce too much ozone. To solve this problem, RGF Environmental Group developed a proprietary broad spectrum, high efficiency UV bulb (HE/UVTM) to work with their hydrated quad-metallic target and PPC-UV bulb coating. The target acts as a catalyst for a hydroxyl radical reaction of the broad spectrum 100-300 nm HE/UVTM energy with water vapor on the hydrated target.

The results are hydro peroxides, super oxide ions, passive negative ions hydroxides, and ozonide ions. The cell creates a very aggressive, advanced oxidation atmosphere that has the ability to reduce airborne bacteria, mold, and up to 99% of viruses, and also odors and VOC's (volatile organic compounds) by up to 97%. A proprietary protective poly shield (RGF PPS) shields the bulb from temperature fluctuations and breakage that could release mercury, which is a problem for all UV bulbs.

Scientists have divided the ultraviolet part of the spectrum into three regions: the near ultraviolet, the far ultraviolet, and the extreme ultraviolet. The three regions are distinguished by how energetic the ultraviolet radiation is, and by the "wavelength" of the ultraviolet light, which is related to energy.

The specific wavelength of 254nm is most effective at inactivating harmful contaminates. As an airborne microorganism passes over the F PHI-Cell™, the UV light penetrates the organism's membrane and alters its genetic material (DNA). With altered DNA, the microorganism will no longer be able to reproduce, rendering it microbiologically dead and therefore, harmless. Due to the short life span of most microorganisms, once they lose the ability to reproduce, the population diminishes rapidly and dramatically. Since the ultraviolet light is only directed inside the unit, there are no potential harmful side effects.

"Improve Your Indoor Air Quality With Proven UV Light Cleaning Technology"

The typical residence should have a high quality purifier system to capture airborne particles such as dirt, dust, and pollen.  Now, the average homeowner can apply the same safety measures that the U.S. Government uses in their public buildings by installing a UV germicidal lamp air cleaner in the ducts of their own home.

Did You Know ...
Ultraviolet (UV) light has shorter wavelengths than visible light. Though these waves are invisible to the human eye, some insects, like bumblebees, can see them!
