Popular questions about Bactericidal irradiators
A household germicidal irradiator is a device with a UV lamp that destroys bacteria, viruses and moulds in the air and on surfaces. It is used to prevent infections and improve sanitary conditions in the home.
The household germicidal irradiator is safe if the instructions are followed. Open models are switched on in the absence of people and animals, closed models work in their presence. It is important not to look at the lamp and ventilate the room after treatment.
The household bactericidal irradiator is suitable for flats, children’s rooms, kitchens, bathrooms, home offices and bedrooms. It is also used in salons, offices and summer houses. The main thing is to choose a model with a suitable type of radiation (open or closed).
Household bactericidal irradiator is designed for a smaller area, works quieter, has a simpler design and is affordable. Medical models are more powerful, require strict monitoring, are suitable for clinics and are not always acceptable for home use.
The lamp in a household germicidal irradiator works for an average of 8000 hours. After this period, its effectiveness drops dramatically, even if it shines. Change is recommended once a year with regular use. Check the resource in the instructions of the specific model.

Bactericidal irradiator (known as “Quartz lamp” or “Bactericidal lamp”) is an open-type device, which is designed for disinfection (quartz) of air and surfaces in rooms from viruses and bacteria by direct ultraviolet rays of bactericidal action in the UVS spectrum of 100-280 nm with the peak of radiation at a wavelength of 254 nm.
Bactericidal irradiators are used only when there are no people or animals present in the treated area, and plants or other living organisms must be protected from the radiation. Direct open UV radiation can cause skin burns and damage to mucous membranes and the cornea of the eyes if it comes into contact with a person. Plants may wither under UV exposure. Human presence in the area of UV radiation—even from a household bactericidal irradiator—is allowed only for short periods and requires the use of eye protection, such as special ultraviolet-protective safety glasses.
The need to ventilate the room depends on the type of UV radiation source used: ozone or ozone-free. Ozone germicidal irradiators in contrast to the obvious disadvantage of ventilation have a significant advantage of ozonation, which complements the ultraviolet method of disinfection - ozone in the gaseous state penetrates into places inaccessible to direct UV rays, and kills germs.
Bactericidal irradiators use bactericidal lamps as a source of ultraviolet radiation.
Bactericidal irradiators are also called “Ultraviolet irradiators” or abbreviated as “UV irradiators”, because the destructive factor of their action for microbes are ultraviolet rays that destroy the genetic material of microorganisms, resulting in their complete destruction.
Modifications of ultraviolet germicidal irradiators differ in the radius of the quartz zone of action - 180° or 360°. Designed for different areas of the premises and come with different power of germicidal lamps. Can generate ozone (ozone), after the operation of which you need to ventilate the room, or be ozone-free, which does not require ventilation. By type of operation are divided into stationary (wall or ceiling) and portable portable with a stand, which is extremely convenient for quartz all rooms in turn.
Bactericidal irradiators for home and office
To understand what kind of apparatus you need to order in an online store, you should understand what types of lamps exist and what they are used for:
- ozone - provoking the formation of ozone in the course of work;
- ozone-free - their device in one way or another prevents the formation of ozone.
Quartz lamps, which are designed to effectively disinfect the air and surfaces from bacteria, viruses and fungi. The ultraviolet lamps used in them are housed in quartz glass bulbs that transmit a wide range of radiation. The 185 nm radiation produces ozone in the surrounding air, which is harmful to health in significant quantities. However, it is enough to ventilate the room so that the ozone concentration becomes safe.
How to choose a germicidal irradiator for the room
In our catalog you can choose lamps not only by power, but also by the area of the treated room. If you do not know what power will be enough for you, install a filter by area.
Fixed (stationary) lamps are suitable for use in a single room or area as a household bactericidal irradiator. If you plan to use the device for treating multiple rooms, it is better to choose a portable model.
The ozone-free lamps are the safest option for humans. They do not emit ozone during operation, so high concentrations of this gas cannot be formed in the air. We also have unbreakable ozone-free lamps with the highest level of safety.
For additional disinfection, you can choose ozone lamps. During operation, ozone is released, which serves as an additional means of disinfection. It penetrates where ultraviolet radiation does not reach.
Additional safety in the use of germicidal irradiators provides a remote control with a timer, which gives the possibility of inclusion with a delay and automatic shutdown after a selected time. They are used both at home in domestic conditions, and in medicine and professional activities. Designed for various spheres, for example: for children's room, for kindergarten and school, for hospital and polyclinic, for office, for dentistry and cosmetology, for hairdresser's, for catering (restaurant, cafe), for store, for factory and plant.
Irradiators germicidal household irradiators for home are gaining popularity not only among medical institutions where clinical sterility is required, but also among families who care about the quality of the microclimate in their home.
Differences between quartzing and other disinfection methods:
- Chemical disinfectants. Bactericidal irradiators do not require the use of chemicals, making them safer and more environmentally friendly. In addition, bacteria and viruses can develop resistance to chemical antimicrobial agents.
- Air filtration. Air filters can trap particles of bacteria and viruses, but are unable to affect their genetic materials. Bactericidal irradiators affect the DNA and RNA cells of microorganisms, which ensures their complete destruction.
- Thermal disinfection. Thermal disinfection (heating) can kill bacteria and viruses, but this method is not effective in killing parasites and fungi. Also, heat treatment can deteriorate materials and surfaces, and this method is physically inconvenient to use.
The main advantages of germicidal irradiators are high efficiency and speed of action.

The speed and efficiency of disinfection of air and surfaces in the room depends on the power of germicidal air irradiators, the variant of suspension, the size and shape of the room itself. In large rooms and places with complex configurations, the use of wall and ceiling mounted germicidal ultraviolet irradiators may be ineffective. In such cases, portable ultraviolet lamps should be ordered.
In turn, the power and productivity of the lamp is determined by its configuration. From the equipment depends on the cost of the product.
