With the 2019 novel coronavirus outbreak threatening everyone on this planet, one cannot help but think of ways on how to protect ourselves from this global viral threat. Aside from the usual protocols like staying away from crowded areas, wearing N95 masks in high risk areas, and sanitizing your hands regularly, here are some ways of making sure your car’s cabin air is clean and free from germs and dust. No thanks to the metro’s seemingly unending traffic, we spend long hours cooped up in our vehicles, thus the need to take our car’s air quality seriously.
Bactakleen Anti-bacterial fumigation services
This is perhaps the most thorough way of servicing your car’s interior, A/C and ventilation. Germs form on almost all contact surfaces, spreading bacteria such as E.coli and Salmonella. And as all viruses stem from bacteria, some of these have mutated and evolved to a state that can be highly dangerous to humans, thus creating dangerous viruses such as H1N1 and SARS, and now the most recent virus, the 2019-nCoV.
Aside from you car’s interior, anti-bacterial fumigation is also recommended for your homes and offices. These systems are widely being used in commercial and institutional establishments as well, with more prevalence specially in these times. Some buildings with “Sick Building Syndrome” can still be rehabilitated by regularly using anti-bacterial fumigation and so can cars with similar issues.

Blaupunkt Air Purifier AP 1.0
The Blaupunkt Air Purifier Air Pure AP 1.0 releases clean air into your car’s cabin interior within the applicable area ranging from 3 to 10 cubic meters within 10 to 25 minutes. It features a 3-layer air filtration system, and is able to clean up the air up to 99 percent, removing several hazardous particles present in the air. With a simple touch control and the convenience to plug and play at any confined car interior space and is powered using any USB-type car plug charger. The device easily fits into most cup holders and just plug it to a USB socket nearby.
It cleans the air from dust particles to germs that can cause irritation and even infections. The filter traps all the germs it catches using a silent blower that sucks in the air and with a UV (ultraviolet) germicidal lamp, it kills the germs to avoid further contamination. It does so by disrupting nucleic acids and damaging their DNA, to keep them from spreading. Aside from sterilizing the air, it can also be used as an aroma-therapeutic device, featuring a small aroma holder so you can put in your favorite essential oil, eliminating the need of a car air freshener.
Sonax Car A/C Cleaner
Bacteria and mildew that trigger allergic reactions that causes one to cough and sneeze. They love air conditioners and humid environment. With Sonax Car Car A/C Cleaner, it has an antibacterial formula that keeps your air conditioner clean, without the need to visit a specialist shop.

Sonax Car Breeze
Sonax Car Breeze eliminates unpleasant odors in your car’s interior such as upholstery, carpets and seats. It also works at home on curtains, fabrics, shoes, floor carpets and even clothes, with long lasting effect. It eliminates odors by using vegetable-based, neutralizing active ingredients that penetrate deep into the fibers and bind badly smelling particles. This permanently removes the smells rather than masking like regular air fresheners. It leaves behind a mild fresh smelling perfume that provides a pleasant freshness. Alternatively, it can also be used as an air freshener spray. These odors give the passengers a pleasant smell inside your car’s cabin and lessens allergic reactions that minimize coughing and sneezing.

UV Care Pocket Sterilizer
This really neat pocket device is all you need for sterilize parts of your car that your hands regularly come in contact with. Door handles, steering wheel, gear shifter and dashboard switches are regularly being touched by your hands and can be a depository of germs. Just by exposing viruses, bacteria, flea eggs, dust mites, and allergen-producing molds to UV light, it can eliminate these by as much as 99 percent kill rate.
The UV Care Pocket Sterilizer is powered either by AAA batteries or USB cable chargers. For USB cables, it is better to have a power bank connected rather than connecting it to the car’s USB socket since you would need it to be portable. By exposing UV light within ¼ inch of the light, it can kill most of these germs and molds with exposures ranging from 1 second to several seconds. This UV pocket light can also double up as a “mace” from lovesick vampires chasing you during this Valentine’s season (think Wesley Snipes in Blade I and II movies).
