UV-C

The Power of UV Disinfection

Our mission is to provide you with an experience that is both safe and environmentally sustainable, while ensuring that cleanliness and hygiene remain a top priority. That's why every Aquafire is equipped with state-of-the-art germicidal UV-C lamps which disinfect the vapor as it flows out of the unit and into the air. This powerful technology eliminates up to 99.9% of viruses, bacteria, spores, microorganisms, and airborne pathogens, keeping your environment clean and healthy.
