UV-C Germicidal Lighting
U.V. Light- A Well Established Disinfection Technology
U.V. light disinfection is now widely used in hospitals and laboratories to sanitize instruments and work surfaces and prevent potentially lethal airborne infectious diseases. The food industry uses the technology to sterilize food before packaging, and water treatment systems large and small now incorporate U.V. light as a chemical-free means of purification.
Germs In The Air You Breathe
Like it or not, the indoor air you breathe has a lot of stuff in it that you don't want, like viruses, bacteria, mold, mildew, and allergens. Some are only annoying, and others can make you sick. Because air repeatedly passes through your HVAC system (in fact, many microbes like the system's cool, dark, damp interior), this is the ideal place for germs to multiply and spread throughout the house.
A Cleaner Air Handler
Installation of a germicidal U.V. light inside the air handler inhibits mold growth, saving energy by allowing the system to operate more efficiently. A cleaner system also requires less maintenance.
A Whole-House UV Air Purifier - The Best Defense
Because it works inside your central air system, a whole-house U.V. air purifier can intercept airborne pathogens and destroy them as they pass by. As air cycles through the system, it passes by the U.V. light many times, exposing and re-exposing airborne microbes to its sterilizing effect. This has proven to be a safe, economical, chemical-free way to reduce airborne contaminants indoors significantly.
Chemical-Free Disinfection
For over a century, scientists have known of the germ-killing properties of ultraviolet light. The antimicrobial power of U.V. light is used in water treatment facilities, the food industry, and hospitals. It is used to clean the air and reduce the threat of airborne infection and disinfect surfaces and surgical instruments. Today this technology is available for our homes and businesses, resulting in healthier, safer indoor environments.
UVC-applications. Products like AHU Series® feature simple installation in the air handler.
The innovative APCO™ in-duct air purifier also reduces toxic Volatile Organic Compounds (V.O.C.s) in the air.
