Residential UV Lights in Columbus, OH

For the longest time, the only thing residents could do to improve their Indoor Air Quality was through ventilation, air filtration, and humidity control. However, one day someone turned on the light — the UV Light, that is. Having Ultra Violet Lights installed within HVAC systems gave hospitals and later homeowners newfound protection in the struggle against these ultra-hazardous organic airborne particles. For people who are vulnerable to allergens and other organic particles, UV lamps are very effective because they kill these organisms as they pass underneath them. Although they were really only used in hospitals and labs in the early days, we sell and install a whole line of residential UV Lights at competitive rates to keep your home’s air free of germs, bacteria, and viruses.

If you’re looking to improve your indoor air quality with UV Light air purification systems such as the Reme Halo, the experts at Five Star Heating & Cooling would be happy to install a setup that works with your current HVAC system. Schedule UV Light services today!

4 Benefits of Residential UV Light Systems

At Five Star Heating & Cooling Group, we care about the quality of the air you and your family breathe in every day. That’s why we provide a wide range of Indoor Air Quality products and services such as UV light installation.

Effectiveness

Of all the ways to improve indoor air quality, UV light appears to the most economical and effective. Depending on the UV placement, strength, and length of exposure, UV light in an HVAC system can kill up to 90% of microorganisms living within the coils and air ducts. Studies have shown that UV light is the most effective way to prevent disease and control infection.

Eliminates Odors

Some airborne contaminants make us pinch our noses; however, some are extremely hazardous. Recent studies show that our indoor air harbors invisible odor contaminates that are two to five times higher than the air outdoors. A major benefit of using a UV light for HVAC systems is the elimination of VOCs from your ventilation system and thus removing them from your breathing space.

Reduces the Spread of Viruses

Your furnace and central air conditioner distribute air to each room of your household to maintain a comfortable temperature throughout the summer or winter. However, if your daughter has an infectious virus, it can be easily dispersed to another family member through the return and supply vents. The easiest way to keep your son or daughter healthy during the winter season is to become familiar with the benefits of using HVAC ultraviolet lights to eliminate microorganisms.

Keeps the HVAC System Clean

Ultraviolet lamps in your air ducts will help keep your HVAC system clean and safe. Before choosing an HVAC ultraviolet light, talk with a certified contractor about the benefits of various types of air disinfection systems. He or she will also work with you to determine the total number of ultraviolet lamps you need to eliminate mold and mildew in your household.

HVAC Ultraviolet (UV) Lights in Columbus, Ohio

You can’t simply place a giant ultraviolet (UV) light over your home or even install hundreds of them in every conceivable corner. It would help if you had a practical way to expose the most air in your home in a reasonably compact space.

Luckily, such a space exists: at the apex of your air ducts in your furnace system. The air in your home gradually circulates through that spot as you run your heater or air conditioner. An ultraviolet (UV) air filter shines a sheet of ultraviolet light across the width of the ducts. As the heater operates, it pushes the air through it, eliminating germs and viruses. As a result, your family is left healthier, and instances of illness drop.

Best of all, you don’t need to do anything but run your heater as you usually would. As long as the ultraviolet (UV) light is periodically maintained – which amounts to some basic cleaning and replacement of the light bulbs – you can expect it to work for many winters. If you want an ultraviolet filter for your house, give our team at Five Star a call at (614) 490-7550. In addition to offering indoor air quality filters, we also provide repair and installation services for malfunctioning air conditioners, inefficient furnaces, noisy water heaters, and broken water lines.
