If your family members suffer from indoor allergies, consider installing UV lights in your West Chicago home. Most people spend 90% of their time indoors, yet indoor air quality in most homes is poor because many keep their windows constantly closed. Although your HVAC system removes some impurities, it frequently needs help.
Many people look to dehumidifiers and air purifiers to remove harmful particles. Consider having the professionals at Chris Heating & Cooling install ultraviolet lights as part of your HVAC system to rid your home of additional bacteria, viruses, mold and other harmful particles.
"We had our furnace go out due to an inducer motor failing. After a cold day, we called Chris Heating & Cooling to see if someone could come out and replace it. Kyle was excellent. He replaced the part, and found other areas of concern we didn’t notice. We will definitely be calling whenever we need more repairs done!"- Laura Q.
When installed in your HVAC system, a UV light helps to clean and purify your indoor air. One of our West Chicago technicians can install them in your system’s ductwork or air handler. Air that circulates through your home usually carries germs and allergens. When these particles pass through ultraviolet light, the device destroys up to 98% of harmful microbes.
Ultraviolet light comes in several wavelengths. UV-C light, called the short wave, is the type we install in HVAC systems. This wavelength can kill many nasty contaminants, making it ideal for HVAC systems. The two main types of ultraviolet lights for HVAC systems are coil sanitizing and air sanitizing. We place the first near the evaporator coil, a moist area that breeds mold and bacteria while also collecting dirt, debris, and pet dander. Air sanitizing coils go inside supply ducts to sanitize the air before circulating through your house.
Installing UV lights in your HVAC system can provide many benefits, including:
Improves efficiency and airflow
Reduces energy costs
Eliminates mold and mildew
Reduces allergies, asthma, and respiratory symptoms
Kills viruses and bacteria
Reduces odors
Improves indoor air quality
Ultraviolet lights are safe when properly installed by an HVAC professional who follows safety protocols. Chris Heating & Cooling takes safety seriously, and we use the correct UV spectrum and install the lights according to the manufacturer’s specifications. We also install these lights in areas where they will never reach residents’ eyes, ensuring your peace of mind.
