It doesn't work. Maybe Boeing can do a better job.
This principle is known for ages, some french company offered these UV aircraft cleaners 15 years ago.. but HWL likes to reinvent the wheel time to time

See the link. Yes, it's a licensing agreement with Dimer LLC. Honeywell builds and markets the equipment and pays Dimer a royalty.
Using UV light To sterilize and disinfect bacteria & viruses has been around for years. My Phoenix home's HVAC system has a UV light system to sterilize the return air before it goes back through the air handler and into my home.
I guess that proper spelling and grammar aren’t a requirement to post a message on this website. No wonder why Honeywell is circling the drain.
Honeywell probably licensed the idea.
Typo - aisle not isle
Its not really a Hon product. Just something we slapped our logo on.
Hopefully Wall Street is not reading layoffs.comm daily 😂
I'm also hearing problems with the GermFalcon. Being kept hush hush so Wall Street doesn't find out. Can't have bad press for HON and the airline.
I’m hearing problems with Honeywell GermFalcon- the arms won’t fold up properly causing it too wide to fit in between the airplane isle. I’m hearing all production units were being recalled,can someone confirm this?
Boeing is smart to divorce themselves from HON altogether. The people leading Boeing are far smarter and more in tune with the market and they know anything HON can do, they can do better; and they're right. This is why they're developing their own avionics and APUs so that they never have to deal with HON again.
