Please see the following letter written by an Environmental Specialist Engineer sent to Austin Air regarding UV lamps and HEPA filtration.

To whom it may concern,

This report demonstrates the reason Austin Air does not utilize UV light as a component in the design of their portable air cleaner:

Ultraviolet light (UVC wavelength) can disinfect if properly used. UVC bulbs are many times more powerful than outside sunlight.

1. Ultraviolet (UVC) light efficiency requires proper dosage (intensity of UVC x exposure time). To disinfect microorganisms with UV light the air speed must be slow enough and there must be sufficient number of bulbs.
2. The bulbs radiation output diminishes with time and may fail prematurely. The output of bulbs should be continuously monitored to ensure effectiveness and when to change the bulbs. This will also increase costs an potential repair problems.
3. They should have metal reflectors for more uniform coverage.
4. Since UVC is high intensity it can deteriorate plastics, wiring, filter materials and other non-metallics. Chemical by-products may also be produced including unstable free-radicals. Surfaces exposed to light must designed to prevent damage to construction materials and not exposure us to this light (except far UVC bulbs).
5. Adding UV lights would increase both initial and maintenance costs. The delicate bulbs must be handled carefully and not be touched with bare hands.
6. HEPA filters are designed to remove airborne particles, especially the hardest to remove 0.3 micron size particles (see 99.97% DOP testing) and not to release trapped microorganisms.

In my opinion, adding UV lights to HEPA air purifiers would not be warranted.

STAGE 2 - Medium Particle Pre-filter

Removes small to medium size particles
(e.g. molds, spores and pollen)

STAGE 3

Allergy Machine (HEGA Filter)
- Activated Military Carbon Cloth
- Removes chemicals, gases and odors (e.g. formaldehyde and ammonia)

Important Note: Due to electrical certifications (CSA & UL) all units state HM400 or HM200 on the label on the underside of the unit\'s casing/body.  This is a certification that pertains to the electrical portion of the unit. 

All the bodies of the units are the same. 

This is not to be confused with the filter configurations which allow the unit to be specifically made for various niches such as pets or chemicals.  It is this filter design that makes a unit an HM402 Bedroom Machine, HM405 Allergy, HM410 Pet Machine, HM450 Healthmate Plus, and HM400 Healthmate, etc...

The same is true for the HM200 series (ie the Junior series).
