REME-LED® (REME with LED Cell) is an advanced Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) technology developed by RGF Environmental utilizing an LED UV-C light source to minimize and neutralize indoor air pollutants such as bacteria, viruses, mold, gases (VOCs) and odors.
The HALO-LED™ is the first mercury free, active air purification system certified ‘Zero Ozone’ compliant. The HALO-LED™ uses REME-LED® technology in combination with an automatic, self-cleaning ion generator designed to reduce airborne particulate by coagulating ultrafine particles making them easier for filters to remove. The REME-LED® cell utilizes an LED generated, high intensity UV light targeted on a hydrated quad-metallic catalyst. The UV light in conjunction with the catalyst promotes the conversion of naturally occurring water vapor into airborne molecules of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). These airborne H2O2 molecules revert to oxygen and hydrogen once they have come in contact with a pollutant.
The combination of RGF’s breakthrough REME-LED® technology and ionization in the HALO-LED™ provides the most advanced means for inactivating all types of air and surface microbial hazards (bacteria, virus, mold) and reducing airborne particulates, allergens, odors and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC’s).
Safety
It is a normal reaction to question the long-term safety of any product that is effective and uses new or ‘breakthrough’ technology. This type of question has become common with the growing demand for safe, effective, and reliable indoor air quality devices.
Hydrogen peroxide naturally occurs in the air and was originally discovered in the early 1800s during experiments to “decompose” air. Additionally, it has been shown to be produced naturally via photochemical, chemical, and biological processes(1). Over the past 20 plus years, RGF has more than four million advanced IAQ products successfully used worldwide without a safety problem.
The breakthrough in RGF’s PHI-CELL® advanced IAQ technology is the controlled creation of hydrogen peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide is created in our atmosphere whenever three components are present: Oxygen molecules, water vapor, and energy (sunlight photochemical).
Low level, airborne hydrogen peroxide is highly effective at destroying harmful microbials in the air and on surfaces. The PHI-CELL® advanced IAQ technology found in RGF’s Guardian Air, REME-HALO® and HALO-LED™ product families has brought natures antimicrobials found in the outside air back into the conditioned space of your home or business.
