VALENCIA, Calif., April 12, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Steril-Aire will celebrate 30 years of success this year by highlighting the key innovations that have spurred the ultraviolet disinfection industry's growth, beginning with introducing and later patenting the application of UVC for HVAC® to evaporator coils. The manufacturer is responsible for 17 technical patents that still define the HVAC ultraviolet air and surface treatment industry.
Key Points:
- Steril-Aire marks 30 years since it pioneered the use of UVC for HVAC® to enhance HVAC coil-heat-transfer efficiency.
- For nearly a century, short-wave ultraviolet UVC energy—similar to sunlight—has been used to destroy airborne and surface-bound microbes, including chickenpox, measles, mumps, tuberculosis, and cold viruses.
- In the 1940s, many hospitals and some schools began using UVC energy to control airborne infectious diseases.
- Demand for UVC air treatment solutions truly exploded following the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, according to Dan Jones, President of Steril-Aire.
