The area of coverage depends on your room dimensions, the user risk profile and the solutions chosen. The lights can provide protection for up to or over 1,000 square feet of space, more often targeting a higher degree of protection with 200-400 square feet per fixture. Even a single light can materially reduce the viral load of almost any space. As a result, UV lighting can fit into most budgets. The higher the ceiling, the wider the coverage (but the weaker the light – think of shining a flashlight on a wall, and how the beam spreads and dissipates as you get further from the wall).
The decreased intensity still provides protection, it just changes how long the light needs to be on to achieve the same effect as it does on air or surfaces that are closer. For broader coverage, strategically spaced lamps are often installed around a room creating overlapping treatment zones (much in the way regular lighting plans are designed). Any certified electrician can install Krypton lighting and we recommend using NALMCO certified installers if using upper-room fixtures.
After reviewing your building dimensions, electrical and mechanical floor plans, we or our strategic distributors, sales representatives, or installers will work with you to help determine how many, and where, UV lights should be placed in your facility. Please don’t hesitate to send us your dimensional and electrical floor plans (including ceiling heights) to expedite the process along with your priority areas for protection (if known).
