Ultraviolet light is one of the many types of light that exist across the light spectrum.
UV-C light
, also known as shortwave, is the type used in most HVAC systems. This type of light has the power to remove some unpleasant contaminants, making it the ideal choice for HVAC systems. When the boiler or central air conditioning system blows air through the house, the UV light will turn on when there is no air circulation and will be turned off to save energy.Not all UV lamps are created equal, so it's important to consult an experienced UV lamp manufacturer to ensure you receive the right type of lamp for your application. Even if your air conditioning system has a high-quality air filter, adding UV light will help kill microorganisms and bacteria that may be small enough to pass through the filter. As air circulates around the house, it carries with it germs and allergens that eventually pass through ultraviolet light that disinfects the air as it recirculates around the house. Installing the lamp as close to the center of the duct as possible will ensure that the UV light absorbs as much air as possible when the air conditioner or boiler is turned on.
To work its magic, UV light has to be properly installed in the air conditioning system (and UV lights can damage your eyes if you're not careful). You can call an expert in UV lighting to install an indoor tanning system (UV lamp) in your home. If you're concerned about indoor air quality, upgrading to a UV lighting system will improve the energy efficiency of your air conditioning system while reducing your energy costs. UV HVAC lights are also good for limiting mold growth throughout the HVAC system and preventing certain respiratory illnesses.
By installing a UV air purification system inside air ducts, you can improve the air quality in your home. UV light has germicidal properties, making it ideal for disinfecting air passing through the system of air conditioning. We recommend installing a UV light system designed to disinfect air in the return air duct of your air controller. If you assemble it this way, the UV light will clean the air in both the boiler and central air system, if you have one.
Otherwise, connect the UV light to a nearby electrical outlet with an extension cord with adequate power. The location of the hole doesn't need to be precise, but make sure it's relatively centered on the return duct housing; you don't want to install the light too close to the return filter. Exposure to UVC light is also harmful to human skin and eyes, and germicidal UVC lamps should be used in vacant spaces. However, it is increasingly recognized that remote UVC lamps provide highly effective germicidal properties and, at the same time, are safer for human exposure and can be used for sterilization purposes in occupied spaces. Installing a UV lighting system in your HVAC system can provide numerous benefits such as improved energy efficiency, reduced energy costs, improved indoor air quality, and prevention of certain respiratory illnesses. It's important to consult an experienced manufacturer when selecting a lamp for your application and ensure that it is properly installed in order for it to work its magic.
