* Inactivation results based on sensitivity testing conducted by independent third-party testing laboratory using control chambers. Multiple data points are used to formulate performance validation statements. The technology is used in a wide range of applications across diverse environmental conditions. Results in non-lab environments will vary; clients should evaluate their individual application and environmental conditions when making an assessment regarding the technology’s potential benefits. For all independent laboratory results, contact your TELS Representative at IndoorAirQuality@Directs.com. The use of this technology is not intended to take the place of reasonable precautions to prevent the transmission of pathogens (including COVID-19).

**The use of this technology is not intended to take the place of reasonable precautions to prevent the transmission of pathogens (including COVID-19). Comply with all applicable public health laws and guidelines as well as CDC guidance. Estimated reduction in risk of COVID-19 infection up to 41% for residents in Skilled Nursing Communities with NPBI installed in both common areas and resident rooms. Data estimates modeled from data self-submitted by communities to The CDC National Healthcare Safety Network system COVID-19 Long Term Care Facility Module and matched against our database of over 400 NPBI technology installations in Oct 2020 – Jan 2021. Outside factors such as new variants, cleaning practices, and vaccine rates vary over time and may impact the reduction in a particular community; results not guaranteed. 4/21/2021
