Abstract
An air removal light device comprising a movable task light with an air suction channel having an inlet for evacuating air from the area below the task light that is between a practitioner and a patient/client. The device includes a body with an outer edge and bottom surface having at least one lamp. An air suction channel is created around the body by positioning an outer wall around the body, with at least one air inlet located adjacent the bottom surface of the body. The air suction channel has an air outlet which is connected to a vacuum hose and vacuum system to remove air from the area below the light. The removed air is transported through a filter to remove pathogens and particulate matter before being returned to the room or exhausted.
