UV Air Purifiers Destroy Mold and Other Biological Pollutants
With thousands of
types of mold classified, it's no surprise that mold is one of the most
common contaminants found indoors. Molds are generated from excessive
moisture and humidity in the air, and like most fungi, they reproduce by
producing spores. In turn, these spores form colonies and begin
digesting the material they attach themselves to. According to the
University of Minnesota's Department of Environmental and Occupational
Health, it is estimated that there are roughly one hundred strains of
mold that have the potential to cause health defects. By using an air
purifier utilizing UV or similar oxidizing ("burning") technologies,
mold spores are incinerated, therefore eliminating existing mold
colonies and preventing the growth of future colonies.
