Do UV Germicidal Lights Really Improve Indoor Air Quality?
Absolutely! You only need to ask the medical industry about the effectiveness of ultraviolet light in the treatment of illnesses and to help with air sanitization in hospitals. UV rays are the same rays that come from the sun, and they disrupt cellular function, killing cells or rendering them inert. You see this in action when you get a sunburn.
UV germicidal lights are designed specifically to target the small organic pollutants that may circulate through a home. They aren’t dangerous for you or your pets (and the light is located in the ductwork where you can’t see it anyway), but they are definitely dangerous for microbes, killing off many harmful germs and viruses.
How UV Germicidal Lights Can Eliminate Bacteria and Mold
UV air purifiers are helpful at controlling mold and bacteria growth in a home. We install the germicidal lights in the ventilation system so they bathe the evaporator coil of the AC with their UV rays. This will affect all the air moving through the HVAC system and also prevent mold from starting to grow on the damp evaporator coil.
UV rays either destroy bacteria or mold on contact or render them inert. Inert mold and bacteria cannot reproduce, making them harmless. The UV light will also stop both from developing, giving you a head start on the problem.
Benefits of Using UV Germicidal Lights in Your HVAC System
There are several major benefits of installing a UV air purifier into your HVAC system:
- Fewer illnesses during the year. It’s much more difficult for viruses and germs to spread around a household.
- Reduce allergies and asthma. Many organic pollutants, such as mold spores, are major allergy triggers.
- Eliminate mold growth before it starts.
- Improve HVAC performance. Mold on the evaporator coil will make an AC less energy efficient.
- Eliminate bad odors due to bacteria and mold.
