The LA2-RC1-HUV uses both HEPA / UVGI Air Purifier technologies to provide superior protection from anything in the air we breathe. Actually, there are 3 outstanding filtering technologies at work here. We have added activated carbon filtration as well. These 3 filtering systems are combined to provide a high level of protection against all airborne assaults. HEPA filtration is highly effective against all particulate. While it is only tested to 0.3 microns, it captures much smaller particles. Including those as small tiny viruses.
UV-C rays kills microbial organisms. What it really does is alter its DNA so that it is no longer able to reproduce. If a virus cannot propagate, it can’t spread. UV-C rays neuter the virus or kills it out right. UV-C rays is likely the best way to be rid of airborne pathogens. We set up our filtration methods in the best way to achieve overall superior results.
The 3rd filtration technology is Activated Carbon. Activated carbon removes harmful gasses from the airstream through adsorption. In an environment where so many chemical and photocatalyst reactions are happening, it is important clean the air of those things no particulate filter or sanitizing rays can remove. These 3 filter technologies combine to provide protection from any airborne contamination.

I am a physician and we have used this product in our endoscopy center for a couple of months now. Well built, solid, and easy to install/use. The small foot print makes this very versatile. The range of air flow/CFM is very helpful to adjust to our needs. Generally quiet running. Although noticable at higher speeds, still very workable.
