Healthy living – providing relief for allergy sufferers

House dust, pollen, mold – how air quality affects well-being

The concentration of potential allergens is often significantly higher indoors than outdoors. Dust mites, animal hair, pollen, and VOCs from furniture and building materials affect particularly sensitive individuals and can lead to chronic complaints.
Allergy sufferers, children, and people with respiratory diseases are especially sensitive to invisible air pollutants.

With Oxytec air purification systems based on UV-C or plasma technology, you can create a healthy indoor climate and reliably reduce allergy-triggering substances – without any chemical additives.

FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions

How do Oxytec systems specifically help allergy sufferers in their everyday lives?

Our UV-C recirculation units and air disinfection systems neutralize:

  • Pollen, dust mite allergens, mold spores
  • Fine dust particles and volatile organic compounds (VOCs)
  • Microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses

The result: less irritation, easier breathing, restful sleep, and less need for medication.

Can it also be used in bedrooms or children’s rooms?

Yes. The devices operate:

  • low noise (<35 dB(A))
  • ozone-free and emission-free to the outside
  • with certified UV-C technology

They can be operated continuously, even at night – ideal for bedrooms and living areas.

Are the systems maintenance-intensive?

No. Maintenance is minimal:

  • Replace UV-C lamps every 9,000 hours (approx. once a year)
  • No filter changes necessary for recirculation units
  • Visual inspection during ventilation technology service intervals

How do these devices differ from standard air purifiers?

oxytec systems are:

  • specially designed for medical and hygienic use
  • suitable for the safe inactivation of germs, not just filtering
  • certified according to VDI 6022 / EN ISO 15858

They therefore provide truly germ-free air, not just purified air.

What needs to be considered when integrating into existing ventilation systems?

Retrofitting is possible in:

  • KWL systems (centralized or decentralized residential ventilation)
  • Air ducts or return air modules
  • Standalone recirculation units per room

We offer suitable solutions for all air volume flows and device manufacturers.

How quickly does air quality improve noticeably?

Usually within:

  • a few hours for recirculation units
  • a few days when integrated into central air systems

Subjective improvements (e.g., in cases of pollen or mold problems) often occur after just 1–2 days.

How loud are the devices during continuous operation?

Our solutions for residential areas are:

  • whisper-quiet (from 30 dB(A))
  • low vibration and visually discreet
  • suitable for continuous operation – even at night in the bedroom

Is funding available for air disinfection in residential areas?

In certain cases, yes:

  • Allergy or care needs may justify funding (e.g., long-term care insurance, housing benefit offices).
  • Housing associations receive subsidies to improve residential hygiene (e.g., KfW, BAFA).
    We are happy to advise you on project preparation and subsidy applications.
