Healthy Climate UV Germicidal Lights, give powerful ultraviolet energy helps eliminate biological contaminants like mold and bacteria
One of the new technologies in residential air filtration systems to reduce sickness and allergies is ultraviolet, or UV, light treatment. Ultraviolet light treatment has been used by big business for years to help sterilize the air in office buildings and hospitals.
Now the technology is available to consumers for residential use. It has helped to eliminate enough germs and allergens in the workplace to cause a reduction in employee sickness, so imagine what it can do for allergy sufferers at home in Richmond.
So, how does the germicidal UV technology work?
A high-efficiency air filtration system and a UV germicidal light work as a “tag team” to clean your air. First, many allergens are trapped in the filter system. Then, as the air passes through the main supply or return duct of the HVAC system it is given the ultraviolet light treatment, which disinfects the air that is sent through the system and helps to eliminate many germs altogether. This doesn’t happen right away, but as the air continues to be cycled throughout the home and the HVAC system, it is repeatedly cleaned.
So, when combined with a good air filtration system that traps tiny particles, UV technology can make a big difference in home air quality. Mold, mildew, viruses and other irritants are zapped so we enjoy cleaner, healthier indoor air, even if everything outside is covered in a dusting of pollen!
