How to mediate the risk posed by the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic?

Introduction to Airionex & Varionix products 

Varionex bipolar ioniziation products implement comprehensive protection from airborne microbes, including Coronavirus. Our units work inside your existing air handling system, producing positive and negative ions that destroy the surface of a microbe like Coronavirus. This system is effective against a wide array of pathogens, as well as allergens like mold and dust. Also stand alone units are available.

Coronavirus risk in buildings and how to mediate it:

While media and government organizations provide a vast amount of information on their websites regarding good personal practices to limit exposure to Coronavirus, less attention has been paid to limiting the risk of exposure in buildings. This can be accomplished easily by using sophisticated and effective air purification technology which eliminates a multitude of various airborne pathogens including (but not limited to) Coronavirus.

While health authorities are still still trying to understand all possible ways for Covid-19 to propagate, it's believed to spread predominantly from person-to-person, between people who are in close contact/proximity with one another (within about 6 feet), or via respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes. (CDC)

A person can also get COVID-19 by touching a surface or object that has come into contact, then touching their own mouth, nose, or possibly their eyes, although this is not thought to be the main way this virus spreads. (CDC)

Now, imagine such an infectious virus inside a building, perhaps because infected respiratory droplets entered the air and traveled inside the HVAC system ducts, as a result of sneezing, coughing, or touching surfaces within a structure. When these infected droplets are deposited on various surfaces, including those our hands touch frequently, like counters and doorknobs, everyone is susceptible to the virus. If the pathogen is also floating through the air, there is another source of infection. A recent study by Kampf et. al. in the Journal of Hospital Infection concluded that human coronaviruses may remain infectious on different types of materials at room temperature for 2 hours up to 9 days, and at 4°C they can persistently remain infectious up to ≥ 28 days.

How can you avoid or alleviate the contamination of your buildings? Advanced air purification solutions are vital. Varionix systems from Airionex, when installed in the existing HVAC systems of buildings or as a standalone unit, actively, efficiently, and within a couple of minutes, eliminate microbes and viruses from the passing air. In this way, they eliminate the risk of HVAC systems contaminating entire buildings by delivering and depositing infected particles. Since the virus is spread via direct and indirect contact, the continuous application of bipolar ions emitted to ambient air continuously disinfect both the breathing space and surfaces. It is the most effective air purifying technology for continuously decontaminating and keeping indoor air clean. 

Varionix bipolar ionization based air cleaning products are effective for disinfecting Coronavirus (COVID-19) in HVAC systems of buildings. There are also stand alone units to be used in separate rooms if there is no suitable HVAC system available for serving the space, or only selected rooms needs to be disinfected. Best of all, keeping your building safe from coronavirus and other pathogens also reduces allergens, leaves the building smelling fresh, and reduces heating and cooling costs by drastically lowering the amount of outside air that needs to be brought in.
