The Air Is Clear

When indoor dining returned to Orange County, CA, patrons may have been a bit excited and anticipatory. There is no secret that the entire world was ready to enjoy fine dining with family, friends, and business associates. Yet, there may also have been a hint of hesitation – would we be able to experience clean air?

The Winery Restaurant & Wine Bar was among the first to reassure guests with upgraded dining rooms equipped with advanced ultraviolet air disinfection. The Winery Restaurant team partnered with Southern California-based Going Green NRG to utilize UV technology to eliminate airborne pathogens, bacteria and viruses.

“We turned to proven technology to improve our guest experience and ensure their safety, as well as that of our staff,” shared JC Clow, Founding Partner of The Winery Restaurant’s three Southern California locations. “The advanced UV air disinfection allows us to preserve the integrity of The Winery experience, for which we are known.”

JC Clow founded the prestigious, award-winning restaurant along with William Lewis and Chef Yvon Goetz. “At the onset of the pandemic, we installed gorgeous transparent custom dividers at our restaurants,” continues JC, “and this latest technological upgrade is another way in which we are working to ensure that all guests and staff feel comfortable and safe inside our restaurants.”

Joining Forces

Joining the many clinics and hospitals around the world that are among those to utilize ultraviolet light to kill pathogens, The Winery Restaurant has implemented UV disinfection to effectively inactivate viruses like the coronavirus and influenza. Data shows that coronavirus has been shown to be highly susceptible to germicidal UV irradiation, and that the susceptibility of coronavirus to UV is greater than 3 times compared to the influenza (common cold) virus.

“We are focused on being proactive and always looking for ways to evolve in anticipation of what’s to come,” explained Clow, who has earned recognition for his expertise as a restaurateur. “At the core of what we do is the guest experience – and improving on it will always be our focus.”
