(NAPSA)—Here’s news that might help you breathe easier: air purifiers using ultraviolet light can clean up the air in your home or office affordably andeffectively. Most people are aware that outdoor air pollution can damage their health, but many do not know that indoor pollution can also have significant health effects. Environ- mental Protection Agency (EPA) studies of human exposureto air pollutants indicate that indoorlevels of pollutants may be up to 100 times higher than outdoorlevels and these contaminants continually circulate throughout the home. Indoorair pollutants are of particular concern because most people spend about 90 percent of their time indoors. Most homes havefilters that remove particles from the air; the problem is that many of these contaminants are much too small to be captured byfilters. Many of these harmful pollutants pass through a filter like sand through a tennis racket. An ultraviolet air purifier sterilizes and neutralizes the air on a molecular level much the same way our sun cleans the atmosphere. One company, Sanuvox Technologies Inc. designed a proprietary system that is able to irradiate biological contaminants such asallergens, mold, bacteria, viruses and chemicals such as cigarette smoke, formaldehyde and VOCs (Volatile Air purifiers can protect your lungs from “bad air” as merefilters cannot. Organic Compounds). The Sanuvox UV process, unlike conventional “stick light” UV purifiers, uses specific tools to maximize UV exposure and intensity. “Chemical and biological contaminants are very difficult to treat. Sanuvox uses Germicidal light to sterilize the air,” said Dr. Normand Brais, President of Sanuvox Technologies Inc. “The public is beginning to understand the importance of indoor air quality, and the potential of the contaminants whichcirculate through our ventilation systems. Sanuvox UVAir Purifiers are designed to destroy these very same chemical andbiological contaminants.” For additional information, visit www.sanuvox.com or call 1-888-SANUVOX.
