Ultra Violet Light Cleaners

Illumipure

UV light has been used to disinfect surfaces in a setting where it does not escape to the surroundings. If it does not shield the user from exposure, UV light products pose a potential health hazard depending on the wavelength, intensity, and exposure time. Likewise, use of UV light during cleaning put a user at risk of eye injury, skin burns or an increased risk of skin cancer. If you do resort to UV light products for purposes of zapping bacteria, viruses, dust mites among other microbes. It is recommended that you do it away from direct contact to you and other members of your household. There are available products in the market where UV light is emitted for a certain period inside in a room or space without human intervention. Remember, that extra peace of mind in sanitizing your space does not matter if it poses risks to your well-being when directly exposed to UV light emissions.
