What is UV-C advantage and disadvantage?
UVC lamps have thousands of hours life. This limits the need for consumable replacement and maintenance. UVC Disinfection Disadvantages. UVC light works only on surfaces within the field of view. If there are objects that prevent light from reaching the surface directly, the surface will not be disinfected sufficiently
Do UV lights really make indoor air quality better?
UV lights are an excellent defence when it comes to protecting your indoor air quality (IAQ) from bacteria. The quality of air inside your home is crucial to the health and comfort of your family, and this is true now more than ever!
Are UV-C lights worth it?

Is ozone from UV-C light harmful?
Myth #6: UV-C disinfection produces ozone that can be very harmful. Some do. (But not ours). While at some wavelengths, the energy of UV light can produce ozone, this only happens at below 242 nm.
Which is better UV LED or UV-C LED?
If the application is a larger, higher flow system in continuous operation, UV lamps can have advantages to provide the best solution to end users. When it comes to compact, point-of-use appliances and purifiers, UVC LEDs provide lower costs of ownership and better alignment with design needs as compared to UV lamps.
What type of UV light kills mold?
The type of ultraviolet light that’s able to effectively get rid of mold is UV-C, which is a very short wavelength of UV light. Because of how beneficial UV light can be at the right amounts, this light is commonly used for disinfection purposes, which can include treating ballast water with UV disinfection.
