Germaphobix Air Purifier

The unit is designed for direct duct mounting. You will need to cut a single hole in your existing ductwork to insert the dual UV-C bulbs, then secure the bracket and plug the unit into a standard 110-120V outlet.

No, this is a complementary system. It is designed to sterilize the air passing through your ducts by inhibiting the growth of mold, bacteria, and viruses, but it does not physically trap dust or debris like a traditional mechanical air filter.

You should never look directly at the UV-C light, as it can be harmful to your eyes and skin. The unit includes a dedicated viewport that allows you to safely check if the bulbs are illuminated without exposing yourself to the direct light.

While the ballast is rated for a 10-year lifespan, the UV-C bulbs themselves will require periodic replacement to maintain their germicidal effectiveness. We recommend checking the manufacturer's guidelines for the specific replacement interval, which is typically every 12 to 18 months for continuous operation.

Yes, because this unit is installed directly into your HVAC ductwork, it treats the air as it circulates throughout your entire home's heating and cooling system. It is effective regardless of square footage, provided your HVAC system is properly sized for your home.
