Benefits of a UV Light for your HVAC Equipment


Share on:

Now that we are getting out of the cooling season and fall has shown her face, you may notice mold or mildew around your unit. These fungi thrive in moist, warm environments like air conditioning coils and other components and can cause many issues, respiratory problems, allergies, and other health issues. Viral illnesses are more common in the fall because the cold weather can suppress your immune system and increase your vulnerability to infections. Upper respiratory infections, including the common cold and flu, are more common in colder seasons due to changes in temperature and humidity and our behavior, such as spending more time indoors.
A UV light is designed to kill bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms that can cause health problems, neutralizing harmful pathogens. A UV light can improve the quality of the air in your home or business and reduce the risk of illness and improve overall indoor air quality. Also, when dust, dirt, and other debris accumulate on coils, it can reduce the efficiency of the system and cause it to work harder than necessary. By eliminating these contaminants with a UV light, HVAC systems can operate more efficiently and last longer by keeping coils and other components clean.
