Natural Asthma Treatment

The world continues to take the path onto higher technology which means more resources, like coal, diesel, and oil, had been use in creating new ways of developing mankind’s health. The development of UV lights embedded on ventilation system is a remarkable option in cleaning the air

Scientists are now developing new ways to prevent illnesses due to air pollution. They found out that filtration itself does not lessen the air pollution and the negative effects and factors. Instead, filters only aid pathogens, like bacteria and molds, to even propagate, grow and even flourish. On the other hand, treatment and disinfectant via Germicidal Ultra-violet air clearly has demonstrated a means of avoiding the spread of infection, like measles, influenza, smallpox, and tuberculosis.

Millions of people suffering from sick building syndrome (SBS) could be treated if UV lights if they were installed in office ventilation systems. It can kill germs present in the environment to avoid aliment at work like breathing difficulties, headaches, sore throats, itchy eyes, and stuffy nose. One factor stimulating this syndrome is the increase usage of air conditioning in offices today. Researchers from Montreal Chest Institute in Canada experimented utilizing three separate different, offices in the city using UVGI (ultraviolet germicidal irradiation) in the ventilation systems of the building. They analyzed reports of illness when lights were switched on compare to the sickness rates when lights were off. Study showed better results and reduced almost 20% of all the symptoms. However, 40% were complaints about respiratory problems but there was 30% reduction of stuffy noses complaints.

It is well known clinically and scientifically, as well as in the heating and air conditioning ventilation trades – that UV light itself is harmful to bacteria, fungi and viruses such as influenza and Swine Flu and thus can destroy these germs and pathogens that are so present in the local office environment. It’s all about prevention. Numerous diseases and environmentally spread illness and diseases can be snapped in the bud. Hence lower incidence and prevalence of diseases at work, such as headaches, sore throats, stuffy nose, and itchy eyes. The result less “sick time” and time booked off due to illness, and higher productivity and even business office profits and profit rates. Researchers from Montreal Chest Institute in Canada conducted an experiment using Ultraviolet germicidal irradiation (UVGI) on three offices in the city. They installed UVGI in ventilation system of the buildings. Study shows 20% reductions of all the symptoms when UV light is turned on. Yet, the remaining 40% were complaints on respiratory problem but there was a 30% reduction of stuffy nose cases. Scientists proved that Ultraviolet germicidal irradiation (UVGI) can kill bacteria and molds in ventilation system. Cheap installation cost but huge in effect, like sickness rate reduction among employees. UVGI can also help several companies to save cost in paying sick employees. Ultraviolet germicidal irradiation (UVGI) is approved by many government and private agencies like Centers of Disease Control, the Air Institute of Respiratory Education and the Air & Waste Management Association. It is also used by several health care facilities to sterilize operating rooms and medical equipments.

In newer homes and instituted in building codes in the northern climes be it the northern states of the US and in colder area of the provinces of Canada that homes are being built or retrofitted to be almost “air tight”. This is being done as an overall practice in the heating and ventilation construction trades in an effort to reduce high wintertime heating bills and overall save energy However the flip side of this equation is that the dust mites are sealed into the home as well to cause the inhabitants difficulties with their allergic disorders and breathing disorders. Not only is the home sealed good and tight for air loss ditto this for humidity. It’s as if the dust mites have a field day to reproduce, grow and flourish in this almost perfect indoor environment for them. Here again UV light filters in the heating and air conditioning ventilation system are of great merit. It is one way of killing dust mite, which usually lies on bedding, and to save electricity cost though hot rinse reduction. UV light probes mostly last up to four years, but it’s advisable to replace them once a year. They may put some cost on your budget but they relatively helpful to your health.
