84. Verilux CleanWave VH01WW4 UV-C Sanitizing Wand (see video)

admin — Tue, 22 Jun 2010 15:15:21 +0000

You'll welcome the day with confidence, knowing that your home is clean and allergen free. The Verilux CleanWave VH01WW4 UVC Sanitizing Wand sanitizes all your household surfaces instantly -- eliminating mold, spores, bacteria and dust mites with the flick of a switch. With the sanitizing wand you'll keep your mattresses free of dust mites and germs. UVC light has been used safely in hospitals, clinics and laboratories for more than 60 years. UVC sanitizing light has been effectively used to sterilize surgical equipment, water and the air in operating rooms, and in germicidal lamps to disinfect various types of product containers in other industries. Verilux is proud to bring this proven technology into the home. The Science of UVC Light -- How Does it Work? Ultraviolet rays with wavelengths shorter than 300 nm are extremely effective in killing bacteria and viruses. Short-wave ultraviolet light (UVC) works by destroying DNA of microorganisms like bacteria, mold, viruses, and dust mites. These compounds break down with exposed to high-intensity UV at 240 to 290 nm. UVC's effectiveness is directly related to the intensity and exposure time. UV rays must strike the contaminants directly in order to penetrate the microorganism and break down its molecular bonds. This bond breakage translates into cellular or genetic damage, rendering the germs harmless by robbing them of their ability to reproduce. Spring Cleaning without the Chemicals According to Verilux, your home may contain more deadly chemicals than most laboratories did just over 50 years ago. Many of the contents of common cleaners in your home have been found to be extremely hazardous to the health of children and adults. The all-purpose cleaners you use to clean counters and floors can contain the following chemicals: Ammonia: Known to cause kidney and liver damage Butyl cellusolve: Neurotoxin that rapidly penetrates the skin Ortho phenyl phenol: Severe eye and skin irritant Diethanolamine (DEA) and Triethanolamine (TEA): Reacts with nitrates in other cleansers to develop carcinogenic nitrosamines Coal tar: Known carcinogen often used to color or tint products Paraben: Hormone-disrupting chemical; used as a preservative And when you spray air fresheners around your home, they often contain: Formaldehyde: Highly toxic, known carcinogen Ethoxylated nonyl phenol: Skin contact can cause swelling, burning, peeling, circulatory collapse, coma or death Naphthalene: Suspected carcinogen Xylene: Neurotoxin Butane gas: Used as a propellant; neurotoxin Paradichlorobenzene: Carcinogen often present in solid deodorizers If you want to minimize your family's exposure to these types of chemicals, switch to the chemical-free way to sanitize your home with Verilux's clean powerful UVC light. Petri dish lab tests without CleanWave Technology show widespread growth. Using CleanWave Technology dramatically reduces germs, mold, bacteria, and viruses. What's in the Box Verilux CleanWave VH01WW4 UVC Sanitizing Wand, AC adapter/quick-charge battery charger, padded storage case, and instructions.
