The UV light sanitizing system includes a UV light assembly that is configured to emit UV light onto the structure, and a UV light emission control unit coupled to the UV light assembly. The UV light emission control unit is configured to control the UV light assembly to emit UV light onto the structure within at least a first UV band and a second UV band that differs from the first UV narrow band during a sanitizing cycle that sanitizes the structure. The UV light within the first and second UV bands is configured to kill at least one type of microbe.
