HOW UV GERMICIDAL LIGHTS CAN IMPROVE THE INDOOR AIR QUALITY IN YOUR HOME.
​
The indoor air quality in your home or office can be five times more polluted than the outdoor air, primarily because indoor air is not properly sanitized. There are added contaminants that are simply not filtered out of the air or removed from surfaces, but instead accumulate again over time. This happens because bacteria, viruses, mold spores, and other toxins are too small to be stopped by traditional air filters, and some can even pass through a HEPA filter. So, since you spend up to 90% of your time indoors, it’s important to consider the impact these pollutants can have on your long-term health.
​
The fact is that lots of contaminants can hinder indoor air quality which in turn poses a major health risk. Issues of pet dander, mold, and bacteria have become quite common in homes. In order to ensure a safe and healthy home, it is important to make sure that the indoor air is clean at all times. This means that you should take proper proactive measures to make sure air quality is at a high level.
The use of UV germicidal lights is known to be one of the most effective alternatives in this context. These lights are primarily contained in the HVAC system and aid in preventing germs from multiplying through the emission of ultraviolet light rays. The rays end up harming the cell walls of the said contaminants thus impeding them from multiplying or growing. Therefore, it is a form of damage control in this process. These lights can also be useful in the cooling and heating system by making it run more efficiently.
They work based on their sterilizing ability. That is why many hospitals use UV lights for purposes of keeping their environments germ-free. Such lights can also be used in water treatment operations. As long as you know how to install and make use of these lights, you can be assured that they will be quite helpful in the process of making the air in your home clean.
