American Made UV Air Purifiers

CaluTech of Houston is a distributor owned branch of CaluTech, Inc. whose headquarters operate in Illinois just outside of Chicago. We offer public access to advanced air purifiers. The Calutech Blue, Calutech Hurricane II, Calutech Blueray and Airtronics models are UV air purifiers manufactured in the U.S.A.

CaluTech operates under regulations set by the FDA because they are an FDA registered medical device manufacturer, under the United States Department of Health. The FDA conducts in-house audits at the Illinois manufacturing facility to ensure quality and reliability of products to customers. CaluTech has achieved certification to U.S. and Canadian standards for electrical safety and are OSHA compliant for business buyers. CaluTech operates under the strict guidelines of ISO 13485:2003 to ensure top notch quality.

CaluTech does custom manufacturing from UV surface sterilizers to metal boxes. Calutech offers all items to consumers worldwide. Calutech has distributors in Taiwan, China, Hong Kong, Thailand, Australia, Central America, South America, Canada, and Europe.

Please read on to learn more about UV and its history.


Ultraviolet purification was in existence before World War II but very little was ever known by the general public. In virtually every water treatment plant exists UV light for purification of water and today air purifiers utilizing ultraviolet light have become readily available. UV is very effective in destroying bacteria when it comes to indoor air purification, but the problem is effectiveness. Although UV can destroy bacteria in the air, it was found to be effective only when the air stood still. Passing air did not receive enough exposure time to the ultraviolet light to have much effect on the destruction of bacteria, mold, and virus DNA. Many had the idea of using stand alone in room purifiers to filter the air, but these air purifiers only filter the air they "catch" with their intake fans which doesn't seem very effective when you consider the entire area of a room with air circulating throughout the structure from room to room on a constant basis, especially when the ventilation ducts were running. So how do you purify the indoor air when the air moves rapidly on an almost constant basis?

This is achieved by creating more UV microwatts for disinfection than necessary, enabling the air purifier to destroy an average 98% of a bacteria DNA while the indoor air is in motion. It is known to be as much as 99.9% effective. CaluTech™ took notice of bacterial destruction through passing air when running 24,000+ microwatts of UV energy and found through the successful depeltion of the air pathogens. Lowering the amount of UV microwatts showed an enormous reduction in effectiveness. Because our unit over compensates for the amount of UV energy needed to destroy bacteria in still air it has proven very effective in bacterial DNA destruction for passing air. With this in mind, the unit has been designed solely for use in a ventilation duct, allowing purification of the entire home or office.

It is a known fact that people spend an average of 90% of their time indoors, and the Enviormental Protection Agency has stated that indoor air pollutant levels may be 2 to 5 times higher than outdoor levels. The EPA has also identified indoor air quality to be one of the five largest enviromental risks to public health.

UV-C light is known to destroy bacteria and molds. The CaluTech Blue does not produce ozone, but constantly emits UV energy with an extreme amount of UV microwattage for passing air. An air conditioner's cooling coils are known to be breeding grounds for airborne pathogens, and the CaluTech™ Blue can destroy these pathogens.

Tests are performed to insure top notch quality. We invite you to browse throughout our web site and take note of the many advantages the CaluTech Blue has over the everyday air purifier. From air purification in homes and offices to mobile medical vans and hospitals, Calutech™ has taken the industry of air purification by storm. Meet a new leader in air quality.

Below you will find the amount of ultraviolet micro-watt energy required to eliminate various forms of infectious disease. With the model 9002CB UV purifier / sterilizer installed in your home or business, you can breathe clean air free of a variety of indoor air pollutants. At a proven kill rate of 98.9% or higher, which is higher than other air purifier units, CaluTech's air purifier has dominated the industry of whole house air purification.

Microorganisms contain nucleic acids which reacts with UV-C at 254nm range. This results in destruction of the DNA of the organism.
