Raycop UV-C Allergy vacuums efficiently sanitize fabric surfaces using UV light to deactivate the DNA in dust mites, bacteria, pollen, mold and mildew, the pulsating pads loosen dust mite matter and dirt trapped in fabrics. Optimized suction eliminates particles without harming fabrics and the HEPA filter captures 99.9% of common allergens like dust, pollen and mold. Unlike your vacuum, which picks up the dust and debris that you can see, RAYCOP combats the potentially harmful microorganisms that you can’t see.
A variety of bacteria and viruses are frequently brought back home from public places such as schools, gyms and offices. Two of the most common bacteria found living in our beds are E-Coli and Staphylococcus. Laboratory tests show that approximately 2 seconds of exposure to UV light can eliminate 99.9% of these bacteria. The H1N1 virus has also been found on mattresses and 99.9% can be eliminated after approximately 5 seconds of exposure to UV light.
According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), a single mattress may be home to as many as 10 million dust mites and a multitude of bacteria and viruses.
RAYCOP uses a powerful UV lamp with a wavelength calibrated to effectively eliminate over 99% of bacteria from fabric surfaces throughout the home. UV light is electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths shorter than visible light. UV can be separated into various ranges, with short-wavelength UV (UVC) considered “germicidal UV.” The UV light in RAYCOP allergen vacuums is 253.7nm, which eliminates viruses and bacteria, and suppresses the movement of dust mites. UV light also alters the DNA of dust mite eggs and significantly reduces egg hatch rates.
