Aqueous Ozone system is designed to clean surfaces, there is still an issue with the aerosolized contagions in the air. The problem is that many people are looking at a mitigation plan that focuses on contact transfer (surfaces) and general social distancing practices. Some businesses are still looking to solve the bigger picture which is how the virus spreads through the air. If the air is not addressed, transmissions will continue. In fact, the transmission associated with aerosolization, can become more of an issue as the micron of particle (virus) that enters into the lungs cannot be natural filtered by our body and therefore the virus dwell deep into the air sacs of our lungs, which is associated with a lower respiratory track infection which are more severe than an upper.
We have a system called Halo which reduces the risk of aerosolized transmission and with the ability to add ionizers, we offer a multi-tiered approach through capture, contain and ion dispersion for continuous disinfection of the surfaces and air. However, like with all disinfectants, there is a "kill rate" associated, which is very important to note, as the ions will not provide an instant Decon of the space. Average "kill Rates" are between 15-30 minutes and is why the suspended virus particles must also be addressed. Please see the attached UTube video showing an example of how the system cleans the air. https://youtu.be/ijFahHOOLms
Thanks so much and let us know if we can support your museums!

Hi all,
I've recently found out that my institution is planning to use an Aqueous Ozone system for sanitizing and cleaning throughout the museum spaces. I just found out at the end of last week so I'm in the cursory search for information, but wanted to reach out to see if anyone else has run across using this in their spaces, or have used something similar in the past.
Be well,
Regina
