Virus/Shield 400

Do The Math!

One Virus/Shield 400 can exchange up to 27,000 cubic feet of air in 60 minutes; smaller areas in less time.

Compare that to our so-called competition that require multiple systems at multiple the price!

Protection doesn’t have to come with a big price

Solidly Simple

Why settle for less and pay more? The Virus/Shield 400 UVC irradiation chamber is larger than most of our competitions’ entire product.

Purchase everything except the ductwork and purchase whatever your installation requires at a local home improvement or HVAC retailer. We can provide install suggestions, if needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do you often refer to deactivation of viruses and destruction or killing of bacteria?maDDie_6770-uvC2021-01-18T14:06:52-05:00

Why do you often refer to deactivation of viruses and destruction or killing of bacteria?

Bacteria are living celled organisms. You can destroy/kill things that are living. Viruses are not alive. In simple terms, they are genetic RNA or DNA with a protein outer layer. While bacteria can reproduce more bacteria, viruses typically need to be in a living host cell where it can use resources in that cell to replicate its genetic makeup.

Why should I have both UVC and Needlepoint Bipolar Ions?maDDie_6770-uvC2021-01-09T03:18:20-05:00

Why should I have both UVC and Needlepoint Bipolar Ions?

You can never have too much protection when it comes to your health and safety. UVC energy deactivates viruses and destroys bacteria as the air passes over the lamps. But what about air that hasn’t made it into the UVC chamber yet? The positive and negative charged ions floating in the room air and landing on surfaces also destroys and deactivates them. Think of it as a pretreatment to reduce pathogen levels while the air hasn’t yet reached the UVC chamber.

How can I get the ventilation ducts from one room to another?maDDie_6770-uvC2021-01-09T03:18:51-05:00

How can I get the ventilation ducts from one room to another?

First, each room must have overhead access to the other rooms to be treated. See our FAQ related to ceiling types for additional info. Second, if the other rooms are separated by a firewall, then you will need to consult with your local government to determine if, or how, you may connect via venting. If there are no physical, legal or safety impediments, you simply “T” or “Y” in additional flexible air ducts and run them from the main UVC chamber to each room. Each room will need an intake and an exhaust duct/vent. There is a limit to how much you can split your ducts and which diameter ducts and fans to use. We may be able to provide guidance or you can consult with a licensed HVAC technician in your area.

What type of ceiling is needed for Virus/Shield 400 installation?maDDie_6770-uvC2021-03-31T15:28:06-04:00

What type of ceiling is needed for Virus/Shield 400 installation?

You need access to the area of the room that houses your current HVAC and electrical wiring. Approximately 14 inches of height clearance is needed for the UVC chamber to fit. If you do not have adequate clearance, please let us know. We may be able to offer a lower profile UVC chamber depending upon the amount of room volume you need to sanitize.

Does your system create ozone?maDDie_6770-uvC2021-01-09T03:19:27-05:00

Does your system create ozone?

No. We use UVC lamps with treated quartz tubes to reduce ozone production to levels that are not measurable.

How can you treat multiple rooms when other room based UVC ventilation systems can’t?maDDie_6770-uvC2021-01-09T03:19:37-05:00

How can you treat multiple rooms when other room based UVC ventilation systems can’t?

Our system is not a simple one-piece product with all components in an enclosure. We use a modular system just like your current HVAC system. While we cannot treat an entire building like your HVAC system, we can increase the UVC chamber size and UVC power, add intake and exhaust ducts to service adjoining rooms, and increase fan flow rate from the standard flow.
