UV Light HVAC Installation in San Marcos, TX

Dependable Indoor Air Quality Solutions in the Greater Austin Area & Hays County

Ensuring your home’s indoor air quality is key to your family’s health and comfort. One of the most valuable tools at your disposal for helping to maintain exceptional IAQ is a UV germicidal light. These lights can improve the overall quality of the air inside your home by reducing the number of bacteria, viruses, and germs, including the ones typically found in the cool, moist environment around your AC coils. At Reliable Air, we can provide you with the latest energy-efficient UV germicidal light technology to help keep your home healthy and your family safe.

What is a UV Germicidal Light?

Ultraviolet germicidal radiation is a time-tested method of neutralizing microorganisms. A UV air purifier uses small, low-watt bulbs similar to a fluorescent lightbulb to expose the air that passes over your evaporator coils and air handler to UV disinfecting light. This will help prevent these germs from being circulated through your home and into the air you and your family breathe.

Indoor Air Quality Benefits of UV Lights

A UV germicidal light can be an incredibly effective way to keep your air quality cleaner and healthier. To explore how it can help safeguard your home from unhealthy microorganisms, reach out to our indoor air quality experts here at Reliable Air. We would be happy to explain more about this technology and its many benefits. From stronger IAQ to reduced allergens and pathogens, the potential benefits make UV germicidal lights a great option for homes of any size or design.

Can a UV Light or Germicidal Light Kill Viruses Indoors?

An HVAC UV light is an air-cleaning device that is installed in your HVAC system. If someone in your home gets the flu or has a cold, the HVAC breaks the bacteria and viruses down so they can no longer cause illness. They don’t reproduce as effectively and mutate less often, so they can’t make nearly as many people sick. Some studies have even found that homes with a higher transmission rate of cold and flu had lower amounts of cold and flu particles after being treated by a UV light.

An HVAC UV light works by killing the bacteria, viruses, mold, and contaminants in the air as it passes through the system. These are often things that get caught in the air conditioner’s filter and then build up on your coils, making the unit less effective. By killing the bacteria and viruses as they pass through the system, you are less likely to get these things from your air conditioner units. This keeps your family healthy and your air conditioner running well.
