PROTECTION AGAINST PATHOGENS
Air Purification Systems For Schools & Educational Facilities
CLEANER AIR. HEALTHIER STUDENTS. STRONGER CENTRES.
Why Indoor Air Quality Matters
Education centres are high-occupancy, high-contact environments where airbourne and surface-borne germs spread rapidly. This leads to frequent illness outbreaks, increased absenteeism, and operational disruption.
Installing in-duct UVC air and HVAC disinfection systems provides continuous, automated infection control within exsiting ventilation systems. The result is cleaner indoor air, reduced transmission of airborne pathogens, improved wellbeing of students and staff. and more consistent attendance.
Education Environments Face Unique Challenges
High-frequency of respiratory illnesses (flu, colds RSV, etc)
Rapid transmission due to close contact and shared surfaces
Developing immune systems increase vulnerability
Staff shortages caused by illness related absenteeism
Pressure on centres to demonstrate strong health& safety standards
Reliance on reactive cleaning rather than continuous prevention
The Solution Supports
Installation of in-duct UVC technology within HVAC, heat pump or ventilation systems to continuously disinfect air as it circulates.
Reduced illness transmission
Lower staff and student absenteeism
Improved indoor air quality
Stronger heath & safety outcomes
Operation stability
Enhanced confidence and reputation
Reduced HVAC energy consumption
Prolonged asset protection
Even with strong hygiene practices, airborne transmission remains a major uncontrolled factor
CREATING A SAFER ENVIRONMENT
Protection Against Pathogens
In today’s world, ensuring a clean and safe environment in educational facilities is more crucial than ever. At Airtech, we understand the importance of providing students, teachers, and staff with the best air quality possible. Our advanced air purifiers are specifically designed to meet the needs of schools, universities, and other educational institutions, creating a healthier atmosphere conducive to learning.
Why Air Quality Matters in Schools
Educational facilities are high-traffic areas where numerous individuals gather, making them hotspots for airborne contaminants. Poor air quality can lead to various health issues, including allergies, asthma, and the spread of infectious diseases. For students, this can result in decreased concentration, increased absenteeism, and overall reduced academic performance. By improving air quality, schools can protect the well-being of their students and staff while enhancing learning outcomes.
CREATING HEALTHIER ENVIRONMENTS
In-duct UVC Light Installation
UVC light fixtures are strategically positioned within the ductwork or air handler of the HVAC system. This ensures maximum exposure of the circulating air to the germicidal effects of UVC light, effectively eliminating airborne pathogens.
Proven Effectiveness
The efficacy of UVC light in destroying pathogens has been extensively studied and scientifically proven. Research has shown that UVC light can inactivate up to 99.9% of bacteria, viruses, and mould spores, making it a highly effective tool for infection control in medical facilities.
Return on Investment That Goes Beyond Clean Air
Installing UVC technology isn't just about improving indoor air quality—it's about reducing ongoing operating costs.
By keeping HVAC systems cleaner, reducing biofilm build-up, and helping minimise airborne contaminants, Air Technologies' solutions can deliver measurable value over time.
✔ Lower HVAC maintenance costs
✔ Improved system efficiency and performance
✔ Extended equipment lifespan
✔ Reduced downtime and cleaning requirements
✔ Healthier indoor environments that can help reduce staff absenteeism
Cleaner air. Smarter buildings. Long-term savings.
Improve HVAC Efficiency & Reduce Energy Costs
Cleaner HVAC systems can work more efficiently.
AirTech UVC systems help prevent the build-up of mould, bacteria and biofilm on HVAC coils and internal components, helping maintain clean heat-transfer surfaces and consistent airflow. By keeping your HVAC system cleaner, UVC can support more efficient operation, reduce the strain on equipment and help minimise unnecessary energy consumption over time.
For commercial buildings, this can contribute to lower operating costs, improved HVAC performance and a longer equipment lifespan — making UVC a smart addition to an energy-conscious building strategy.
Cleaner systems. Better performance. Smarter energy use.
Sustainable and environmentally friendly
Unlike chemical disinfectants, UVC light does not produce harmful by-products or contribute to antimicrobial resistance. Its use in air purification systems reduces the need for harsh chemicals, creating a healthier and more environmentally friendly indoor environment for patients, staff, and visitors.
Cleaner Coils - UVC prevents biofilm accumulation on heat exchange surfaces, maintaining optimal thermal efficiency.
Lower Energy - Clean coils transfer heat more efficiently, reducing HVAC energy draw - typically 10-25% improvement in coil efficiency
Less Chemical Cleaning- Reduced frequency of chemical coil cleaning interventions, lowering chemical use, water consumption and contractor costs
Lower Lifecycle Costs - Extended service intervals, delayed capital replacement, and reduced maintenance spend across the HVAC asset lifestyle
