Correctional

Correctional Facility Benefits

  • Inactivate biological environmental pathogens to reduce inmate and staff infection rates and illnesses
  • Reduce risk and legal exposure
  • Reduce energy consumption by AHUs and eliminate Chemical Coil Cleaning

Challenges Correctional Facilities:

  • Rising cost of treatment for prisoners and staff for airborne diseases.
  • Spread of infectious agents.
  • Inefficient HVAC systems are costly to operate.

Identifying the specific spaces and challenges within each space are important in determining which of these solutions or combination of solutions will achieve the best results for the level of pathogen reduction required in different correctional facility environments, including:

  • Cafeterias
  • Administrative buildings
  • Medical evaluation rooms
  • Hallways
  • Living quarters
  • Common areas

UVC for IAQ and Energy Efficiency

In AHU & In Duct UV Fixtures

In AHU & In Duct UV fixtures, such as the Lumalier AR Series UVC Fixtures, are installed inside ventilation systems to provide high-level, facility-wide disinfection of the airborne infectious pathogens that can cause respiratory sickness, disease, and infection. In AHU & In Duct fixtures are scalable to fit any size air handler unit (AHU).

  • Achieves the greatest square foot coverage at the lowest cost.
  • Uses the existing ventilation system to disinfect and distribute air.
  • Eliminates biological growth on coils and in the drain pan that can cause coil fouling, odors, and premature failure of air conditioning equipment.
  • Provides facilities with an ROI benefit with reduced energy consumption and maintenance.

Upper-Air UV Fixtures

Upper-air UV fixtures are engineered to provide very targeted airborne pathogen reduction into high-risk areas.

  • Installation applications include lobbies in administrative buildings, hallways, cafeterias, common areas, etc.
  • Units are available for high or low ceilings and for any square footage.
  • Units can be permanently or temporarily installed for flexible space uses.
  • Natural convection-currents create repeated air disinfection within defined spaces. Fan assisted models are available.

Surface Disinfection

Surface disinfection UV fixtures are engineered for high-level disinfection of contaminated surfaces that can spread infection.

  • Appropriate for temporary disinfection of floors, desks, and table surfaces that have been contaminated.
  • Ideal for treatment of difficult-to-disinfect surfaces, such as keyboards, monitors, lab and cafeteria equipment.
  • Surface disinfection units are available in both fixed and portable options.
