July 29, 2015

Allergy symptoms can really kick into overdrive during spring, summer and fall. It seems like the hunt for relief is boundless. A lot of contaminants can damage your indoor air quality, like mold, pet dander and bacteria. You can get some relief from the allergy symptoms caused by these contaminants with germicidal lights.

A lot of people haven’t heard of germicidal lights but they’re one of the best ways to boost the quality of the air in your house. The lights are contained within your HVAC system and stops germs from multiplying by emitting ultraviolet (UV) light rays that harm the cell walls of contaminants so they can’t grow or multiply. Without even having your system running, the lights are still destroying them.

Germicidal lights can also help your heating and cooling system run more efficiently, in addition to improving your indoor air quality. Mold, pet dander and other microorganisms can accumulate in your system and make it work harder than necessary. Clean air within your home keeps your family healthy, and your HVAC system healthy.
