(800) 548-4873
Price: not disclosed
FYI: Designed to be used after manual terminal cleaning, the easy-
to-use, lightweight, remote-controlled system automatically delivers
a calculated dose of germicidal UV-C energy, altering the DNA of
aggressive pathogens, and disinfecting clean, dry surfaces in less
than 30 minutes. The system doesn't produce ozone or secondary
contaminants, so rooms can be reoccupied immediately after treat-
ment. It's effective against C. difficile, Staphylococcus aureus, MRSA
and VRE, among others.
