2. UV disinfection technology
For over a century scientists have known that certain frequencies of light have a devastating effect on microbial life. We now know that exposure to ultraviolet light in the range of 254 NM (UV-C band) disrupts the DNA of micro-organisms thus preventing them from reproducing, thereby effectively killing them.
3. Area of application and services
– Healthcare Applications
Mold, bacteria, viruses, and odor-causing and potentially toxic volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are threats that are mostly invisible. Ultraviolet germicidal irradiation (UVGI) is a safe, scientifically proven and well established disinfection technology that has been used for over a century. Medical facilities benefit from this technology in several ways:
– Hospitality/Institutional
Fresh-Aire UV offers a complete selection of germicidal UV light systems that sterilize biological contaminants such as mold, bacteria, viruses, and allergens in the air and on HVAC system surfaces. The products categories for this branch are:
– Ice Machine Disinfection
Now ice machine maintenance is easier, safer, and more cost-effective thanks to the award winning ICE UV germicidal UV light system from Fresh-Aire UV. ICE UV works continuously to kill germs before they become established, reducing the need for frequent cleanings. The UV-C lamp is designed to produce just the right amount of UV-C light; enough to kill germs inside the ice machine without damaging plastic materials inside.
– Agricultural
Agriculture operations face a unique set of challenges from mold, fungus, bacteria and diseases that are caused by cross-contamination, airborne contamination and sanitary conditions within growing and processing facilities. Fortunately, Fresh-Aire UV offers a variety of disinfection solutions for agriculture, such as:
4. The benefits of UV equipment usage
a) UV Products Promote Health & Energy Conservation
Fresh-Aire UV manufactures a wide range of germicidal ultraviolet light products designed to help reduce energy usage and system maintenance, and increase equipment service life. The products apply to systems such as heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, PTAC’s, fan coils, mini-splits, commercial HVAC systems, ice machines, and grease hoods.
b) Recycling / Eco-Friendly
Fresh-Aire UV re-manufactures warranted and returned products and is developing a consumer UV-C lamp return system. All Fresh-Aire UV marketing literature is printed on sustainably sourced paper using environmentally friendly inks. The majority of our advertising is electronic not paper-based.
c) Energy Conservation
The Jupiter Florida facilities of Fresh-Aire UV have implemented the following programs:
