To effectively deal with post-COVID-19 situation, OSRAM UV-C germicidal lamps can be installed in ventilation ducts to clean the air passing through them. As the air flows through the air conditioning system, UV-C can suppress the formation of mold in the air conditioning system and help to reduce viruses and bacteria, preventing them from multiplying.
