Historically, UV (Ultraviolet Light) has been used to disinfect water, surfaces, and even the air. Recently, more and more people are looking for air purifiers that destroy or filter bacteria, germs, viruses, and other microbes and pathogens. Recent issues with COVID, SARS, H1N1 and the Avian flu virus have all helped raise the bar when it comes to microbe filtration. Although traditional HEPA filters can reduce many types of germs and microbes, air purifiers with UV light sterilize the air by altering the microbe's DNA, effectively destroying them. Additionally, UV air purifiers must be quite powerful. Otherwise, it can take multiple passes before a germ is actually destroyed or sterilized. It's also important to note that in certain instances, UV light can be harmful to humans. As a result, UV light within these air purifiers must be secured and located where outside exposure is impossible. In addition, other air purifiers for germs often utilize antimicrobial agents within the filter media to kill or sanitize. Because there are many types of sanitizing air purifiers available, and selecting one right for you can be overwhelming, we have compiled a list of the best UV air purifiers we offer.
