Greffen’s UV-C solutions are unique in their ability to kill viruses in one-half of a second as they pass by germicidal lights. While UV-C’s effect on COVID-19 has not been studied yet, there have been numerous studies that show that 253.7nm UV-C solutions are extremely effective in killing varieties of coronaviruses such as SARS and MERS. Based on the information available from authorities, coronaviruses can be transmitted via both air and direct contact. It can be assumed that the virus can be ingested into the return air-plenum and be moved throughout the organization’s air handling units and the building’s duct work.
