Solutions To Mold And Mildew Caused By Air Conditioning

Are you working to cut back on the amount of germs, mold and mildew in your home? UV light purification can be an ideal way to accomplish just that. In these warm Chicago summers, we’re running our air conditioners excessively for three to four months out of the year.

As that cold air hums through the vents in our home, moisture and condensation can pool in the dark areas of your HVAC system. Wherever that moisture and condensation pools then becomes a breading ground for harmful germs, viruses, mold and mildew. These can drastically impact the air quality of your home and are also asthma and allergy triggers. If they gather for long enough, the ensuing rot can cause damage to your home.

The UV lights come in one and two bulb units, and are designed to be mounted in the air plenum, near the indoor coil of the air conditioner.

These lights are so powerful, that they are not meant to be looked at directly when they are powered on. It’s the same type of light coming directly from the sun. The rays off the UV lights kill spores, germs and viruses that are otherwise gathering strength in the dark confines of your HVAC system.

Because of the power of the rays, a UV light is an ideal solution for those who are afflicted with asthma, or mold and mildew allergies.
