Airborne Flu viruses can be captured & sterilized with a combination of MERV Filter & UVR rated UV-C Light
• Adding filters and UV-C together in successive layers can provide a lethal
force to prevent distribution of airborne viruses into occupied spaces.
• A MERV 10 filter alone captures only 10% of flu whereas adding a
Ultraviolet rating of 10 triples that total single pass capture/sterilize to
35%.
• A MERV 13 alone catapults to an 84% capture/sterilize rate with the
addition of UV-C light. That is a very achievable goal for any indoor
space.
• Adding additional UV-C lamps can achieve a total single pass
capture/sterilize of 99.9%. |
