thousands of infectious bacteria, viruses, fungal
spores, and contaminants, which can only be seen
with a microscope.

* The UV-V wavelength generates ozone. According to the
Environmental Protection Agency, ozone can be harmful to your
health. When inhaled, ozone can damage the lungs. Relatively
low amounts of ozone can cause chest pain, coughing,
shortness of breath, and throat irritation. Ozone can also
compromise your ability to fight respiratory infections.
All UV-Aire lamps are coated to block this wavelength.
