Question
I was looking at the mobile ultraviolit ligfht for about $278.00-and I wanted to know if used in a bedroom how many sguare ft will it cover?

Answer
Dear Mr. Lombardi: Thank you for your inquiry. Utilization of UV-C lights is based on the potency of the lamps (not all lamps are made the same), the size of the area you are trying to disinfect and time. Without knowing the potency of the light and the space and the layout of the bedroom, it would be hard to judge the amount of time required to disinfect the room. Positioning of the light is also crucial to gain the most benefit from the irradiation. If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact us.
