UV Benefits


Much emphasis has been placed over the years on UV rays being very harmful. But did you know that these rays are very useful to us at times and have many benefits? UV radiations of different intensities are used by us in different ways. Some of the benefits of UV radiation are as follows:

Vitamin D from natural sunlight is essential for our bones. It is used in fluorescent lamps for the treatment of neonatal jaundice and psoriasis. UV lamps are also used to sterilize tools, laboratories, offices, etc. It has also been implemented in drinking water treatment plants. UV radiation is also employed in air cleaners. They remove harmful airborne substances and prevent many health hazards from affecting our respiratory system.

The benefits of using ultraviolet air purifiers were first realized in the 1990’s. Now- a- days they are available in various sizes to be utilized in different settings. In order to know how a UV air purifier works, you need to understand the functions of UV rays in destroying pollutants. UV rays use its energy to break down the organic molecular bond of a micro-organism. This destroys the micro-organism from its roots. It uses the same mechanism to destroy harmful particles. Thus it emits air that is free from pollutants like smoke, pollens, pet dander, dust, dust-mites, molds and allergens. It also kills micro-organisms like viruses, bacteria and fungi.

Maintaining UV air purifiers are easy, especially when your air purifier is from a reputed company. The air purifiers from Oxynet Solutions have helped solve many respiratory problems and have left a positive impression on their customers.
