The White House Office of Science and Technology Policy recently highlighted indoor air quality with this fact sheet. It’s another clear sign that government leaders are taking note of the importance of IAQ in light of COVID. Earlier this fall, a summit was held on the matter and, earlier this year, the White House highlighted the importance of improving indoor ventilation.

Disinfection expert PJ Piper and his company, Far UV Technologies, are stewards of safety in today’s pandemic world. Their germicidal ultraviolet technology is leading the way in providing safer indoor air to breathe. The latest White House communication highlights UV and the importance of research, and how schools can tap funds to acquire their own UV technology.

He discusses more on how technology, like Far-UVC, can help schools, businesses and our public spaces dramatically reduce transmission and the way those technologies work, plus the following:

• How schools can use funds provided by the American Rescue Plan to improve ventilation in schools.
• The specific steps schools can take to improve indoor air quality and reduce the risk of airborne transmission.
• The current spaces where Far UV technology has been installed and the effectiveness of those installations over the course of their deployment.
