Abstract: An antimicrobial system for disinfecting surrounding surfaces and air passing through an apparatus mounted above a space to be disinfected. The system includes a disinfecting apparatus that includes an ultraviolet source emitting ultraviolet light for disinfecting exposed surfaces. The system also includes a fixture module retaining and supporting the ultraviolet source within the disinfecting apparatus. The system includes a drive module that positions the ultraviolet source in one of two positions within the fixture module. The ultraviolet source emits ultraviolet light onto exposed surfaces when in a “ready” position within the fixture module. The ultraviolet source is shielded when in a “storage” position within the fixture module, such that emitted ultraviolet light will not reach the exposed surfaces. The disinfecting apparatus is configured to disinfect air passing through the disinfecting apparatus when the ultraviolet source is in the “storage” position.
