Alfaa UV comes up with Ultracoil & UltraDuct UVGI to help fight Covid-19

The scope of systemic cleaning of in-door ventilation systems, which was formerly shunned, has become a pivotal concern in the wake of the spread of the virus through the air. Considering the current times and the challenges, Alfaa UV’s UltraCoil and UltraDuct UVGI air disinfection modules, have witnessed a considerable spike in both the interest and demand from HVAC professionals.

WHO earlier in July published an update that the COVID-19 virus can remain suspended in the air in crowded indoor spaces, where 'short-range aerosol transmission cannot be ruled out', and keeping in mind the same, it becomes all the more crucial to optimise the quality of indoor air while adapting clean and hygienic HVAC equipment, especially, in closed environments and high risk areas like, hospitals, malls, hotels, etc. 

The use of UVGI in the maintenance apparatus has its own benefits as it not only attacks the root cause of the problem but it also prevents the further growth of bacteria, viruses, and mildew on the Air Handling Unit (AHU) coils. Moreover, it drives out the need for timely manual cleaning and helps save energy. 

In the words of Ankur Parikh, CEO, ALFAA UV, “The world has woken up to the realisation that the spread of COVID-19 can be arrested with the proper disinfection of air-conditioned spaces as the novel coronavirus is now linked to air in the new research. With two decades of expertise in UV technology, we at ALFAA UV welcome this opportunity to offer our UVGI systems for HVAC applications in a bid to fight this dreaded pandemic.”

To name a few they include – Reliance Foundation Hospital (HN Hospital) (Mumbai), Vodafone India Head Office (Mumbai), Pepsi (Bharuch), Korum Mall (Thane), ITC Ltd.
