State Board Requirements for UV Boxes
Regulation change in industry often lags behind changes in what is recommended as best infectious disease control and occupational health protection practice by public health experts.
UV boxes are sometimes still required by state regulation. While hair salon operators must comply with regulations, the use of UV Boxes is inconsistent with best infection prevention practice.
We advise shop operators to consult with their state and local regulators and follow their directives. Sometimes suspension of enforcement of what is recognized as obsolete regulations occurs before actual regulation change.
UV boxes are a possibly convient storage device but lack sufficient infectious disease control benefit.;)
