In one aspect, a UV light-emitting module (300) comprises an enclosure (304) including a rear wall (308) and a face plate (312) that includes a light-transmitting aperture (316). At least one sidewall (330, 334, 338, 342) extends between the rear wall and the face plate, and at least one UV light emitter (320) is located within the enclosure. The module includes at least one cooling feature selected from (1) a sidewall ventilation opening (348, 349) in the at least one sidewall and (2) a heat sink feature (428) extending from the rear wall.
