My church has a proposal to install several iWave-R Air Purifiers in our ducts to help reduce Covid-19 risk. The website description is pretty nebulous about exactly how this thing kills viruses, and offers no background testing data or references. See https://www.nucalgon.com/products/in...-air-purifier/
Anyone have thoughts on whether this thing works, how it works, or better alternatives that we should be looking at?
We are already doing all the no-brainer stuff (masks, every-other-pew social distancing, windows open) but now that winter is setting in, we can no longer keep the windows open.
You need a constant supply of outdoor air. And a way to exhaust stale air within the building.
We’ve been installing hundreds of bipolar ionization units. That customers seem to be happy with.

Thanks for the quick follow-up. Anybody know how much ozone this model produces? I could not find that online.

Zero according to their claims. I'm a commercial/industrial wholesaler and I stock Nu Calgon, some GPS and soon to be a stocking distributor for Plasma Air. If you're interested, let me know. I can ship anywhere in the continental U.S.

Followup;
Almost 3 weeks later, no issues good or bad (after install) on my end ... BUT... the wife says she has only needed to dust once since I put it in.
That is a big plus in my book.

Another followup -
I finally heard back from the mfg about the ozone issue. Their device was not tested to the most stringent ozone standard recommended by the CDC, but performed well on testing to a less stringent standard (UL-867, < 0.050 ppm ozone).
