UV air sanitizer services in Waterloo

How does this system work?

UV air sanitizers harness the power of UV light to kill contaminants found within your home’s air. This system is placed into your current heating and air conditioning system. The UV light penetrates the air as it is recirculated back into your home. You are then left with cleaner air that is free of bacteria and other harmful agents.

One pass through the light of a UV lamp won’t disinfect the air, but while you use your heating and cooling system, the air in your home passes through the sanitizer as much as 50 times per day. This continued exposure to the UV rays reduces contamination in the air. Over 99% of the bacteria are killed. This greatly improves the air your breathe. The result is a large disinfection rate, and mold spores are actually killed before they have a chance to develop.

UV lights help keep the air clean

UV stands for "ultraviolet," a spectrum of light we can’t see, but which exists in copious amounts in sunlight. We can feel the effects every time we step out into the sunshine: it’s what causes our skins to tan and burn.

UV light bulbs harness the power on much lower levels, which are perfectly safe for multicellular organisms like humans and pets. In fact, UV lights are often used at rock concerts and in dark rides at amusement parks to make our clothes glow in the dark. That power can be used to stop germs and bacteria in their tracks.

What are the benefits?

The system works to disinfect your indoor air while also helping to prevent mold growth. It is a cleaner and more effective way of purifying the air in your home. Older air purifier models relied on the air filter; once the filter became dirty or clogged, it became less effective.

Because UV air sanitizers rely on light instead of a filter, the air is continually cleaned at an optimal level. This makes it ideal for older homeowners or those too busy to maintain a filtered machine.

Additional benefits include odor control. The cleaning power of the UV light reduces the smells that come from mold, smoking, and pets. Best of all, these machines are quiet. They don’t require the use of a fan as with traditional air purifying machines.

If anyone in your household suffers from asthma, allergies, or respiratory problems, a UV air sanitizer will be a great addition. The difference is noticeable with fewer missed days of school or work due to illness. These types of units have been used for years in hotels, daycare centers, schools, hospitals, and restaurants with tremendous success.
