Recent test results have demonstrated Guardian PHI cells provide inactivation of Influenza H1N1 (99+%) under controlled laboratory conditions.*
Guardian Air™ PHI
The Guardian Air PHI CELL by RGF Advanced Oxidation Systems is designed to help eliminate sick building syndrome risks by reducing odors, air pollutants, and cold and virus causing germs through a patented Photohydroionization® (PHI) process. The PHI Cells are easily mounted into existing air conditioning and heating systems. When the HVAC system is in operation, the PHI Cell uses an Advanced Oxidation Process to reduce the airborne contaminants.
A 2011 research study utilized photohydroionization (PHI) in a healthcare facility. This independent study ran PHI units 12 hours a day/ 7 days a week for 30 days. The findings were that the PHI treatment resulted in greater than 90% reduction in mold, MRSA and Staphylococcus aureus in the measured areas. Study details are in the PDF below.

Why use PhotoHydroIonization?
Germicidal UV light rays have been used for decades by the medical industry as a method for destroying microorganisms (germs, viruses, bacteria). UV light is dependable and can be easily installed in HVAC ducts or a plenum. Germicidal UV light is effective in reducing airborne microorganisms that pass through the light rays. However, germicidal UV light has little to no effect on gases, vapors or odors.
Advanced Oxidation, on the other hand, is very effective on gases, vapors and odors and UV light in the presence of the PHI catalyst creates the Advanced Oxidation reaction. This process in combination with the catalytic target surface of the cell produces not only an atmosphere in which germicidal light can kill micro-organisms. It also produces, super oxide ions and hydro-peroxides. These products of advanced oxidation reactions further attack the microorganisms as well as significantly reduce odors and VOC’s. With the RGF PHI CELL, most gases and odors are abated while micro-organisms can be reduced by as much as 90%.
