Benefits of a Germicidal Light

A Germical Light Keeps Germs At Bay

First of all, do you know what a germicidal light actually is? And how you can use it? Or what anyone really uses it for? Well, a germicidal light is a particular type of lamp which produces ultraviolet light, or UVC light for short. The lights are designed to have a certain degree of UV light produced. This type of light is short wave, and is commonly available as low or high pressure lamps as well as LED’s. You can’t see this UV wave, and it is harmless to us, but can actually do a lot of harm to nasty germs. The light can disrupt their DNA and make them unable to multiply or can simply kill them off. UV germicidal lights can also kill other nasty pollutants like lice and dust mites, which we really don’t want in our homes.
