DOES YOUR AIR PURIFIER MEET YOUR NEEDS?
A HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) Filter can be part of common Air Purifier Units promising to improve the air quality in your home.
Recently, considering the pandemic environment, there has been a rush on these units but there are a lot of misconceptions about whether or not an air purifier meets the HEPA standard and what they can and can’t do.
What they are good for
HEPA filters are like a mesh of tangled fibres – they are designed such that large enough particles get trapped as they hit the fibres, so it is effective when particles are large enough -such as pet dander, pollen and dust mites.
While these filters remove some particles from the air, there are many harmful contaminants in the air that aren’t captured by the filter, such as:
• VOCs (Volatile Orgaanic Compounds). These are chemicals that derive from building products, chemical cleaners and some cosmetic products, and are associated with concerning health effects.
• Viruses are too small to be removed from the air by the HEPA filter
• Bacteria - While bacteria are large enough to be trapped, bacteria are understood to release endotoxins into the air stream when dying on the air filter surface, which can result in some inflammatory response in vulnerable people.
• Mould – mould spores can be caught by the filter but stay alive on the surface. Combined with other particles that accumulate, the spores can feed on the nutrient and grow spores which can eventually move through the filter and release into the air.
So, in summary, while an Air Purifier can certainly catch the larger particles such as dust, pollen and animal dander, there are some short-comings if you are concerned about other air pollution and contamination.
The answer to safe indoor air cleansing is an approved UV-C Air disinfection Unit, which not only draws large and small contaminants such as mould spores, bacteria and viruses into the Unit ‘s filter but also then passes them across the Ultraviolet shielded tubes to kill 99.9% of the contaminants, delivering effortless disinfection in in just a few minutes.

THE IMPORTANCE OF BREATHING CLEAN AIR
Put simply, when your body has more oxygen, your health improves.
You can go without food for a month, without water for 7 days, but you can only go 3 minutes without breathing before your brain starts to die.
We take 20,000 breaths a day!
Deep breathing brings more oxygen into the blood as well as improving lymph flow. It is also the best massage for your digestive system…………. And you can do all this at home for free!
Something that is not thought about enough, is the quality of the air you are breathing - specifically indoor air quality. Did you know that according to the EPA, indoor air can be two to five, or even up to 100 times more polluted than outdoor air?
Viruses are obviously a big concern. But it’s also a combination of outside contaminants like pollen, smoke, dust and internal pollutants like dander, dust mites, mould, and off-gassing from furniture that are big challenges.
There are also a whole host of chemical pollutants that we introduce into our air inadvertently from cooking, cleaning, and even burning candles.
2020 and 2021 have given us all a very different mindset.
Consciousness about simple everyday tasks has increased. We are more concerned about cleanliness than ever before. It’s no exaggeration to say: we see health risks in places we never did before.
Fortunately, new technology can help eradicate our worries and offer protection against bacteria and viruses – by using the power of light to contribute to making the world a safer place.

LAWSUITS AND COMPENSATION CLAIMS ARE SET TO RISE AS WORKERS CATCH COVID
Business owners are left open to being sued if staff get sick at work and small business is doing everything they can to protect their staff, their families and customers from infection. If an employee believes they had contracted COVID because their employer was at fault, either deliberately or through negligence, they may be able to sue their boss.
Workers Compensation cases are also set to rise as high claim numbers are already recorded in many states, the majority being in Victoria and NSW.
Workers are worried about returning to work, in particular, those with disabilities, chronic illnesses and the immunocompromised.
As Mark Stapleton from Stapleton Family Meats says, “It all comes back to a duty of care”.

A proven way of creating a healthy environment in the workplace may be to install a UV-C Disinfection Unit, either free-standing or integrated on walls or ceilings. In Laboratory testing at Boston University, UV-C light sources reduced SARS-COV–2, the virus that causes COVID-19, infectivity on a surface to below detectable levels after seconds of exposure. *

ARE YOU CONCERNED ABOUT KEEPING YOUR SMALL BUSINESS OPEN AND YOUR CUSTOMERS SAFE?
As the country opens up after a long isolation period, small business is taking steps to keep their staff and the broader community safe. Some precautions that should be included are:
Ensure social distancing
Cleaning, hygiene activities
Managing staff and patrons with illness symptoms
Encouraging the use of the QR code on entry
The concept of air sanitisation is becoming a significant factor as more cost-effective and natural solutions are coming onto the market to assist in the safety aspect of remaining open for business.
UV-C has long been a valuable and proven solution to indoor sanitisation - it can break down the RNA and DNA of bacteria and viruses, rendering them harmless and unable to reproduce.

Using UV-C in combination with the measures above, business can provide a healthy, safe environment for staff and customers.
