Is the Ionmax Ionic Air Purifier with UV ultraviolet light safe?
Yes. Our UV lamp is created by Phillips and is manufactured in Holland; it resembles an ordinary fluorescent tube. This UV lamp is completely shielded inside the unit and meets all safety requirements for home appliances. In fact, the visible blue light that you see is not the UV because UV is invisible. The lamp will turn off automatically when the rear cover is removed. There are important usage and safety guidelines in the instruction manual, but the Ionmax Ionic Air Purifier with UV is as safe as any other common electrical appliances, even in homes with pets and toddlers.
