Germicidal Lights: Can Help Reduce Germs and Improve Your Indoor Air Quality

Through the spring, summer, and fall, allergies are running rampant. No matter when seasonal allergies affect you or your family, the search for relief is constant. Whether it is mold, pet dander, or some other bacteria that is hurting your indoor air quality, germicidal lights could help ease the effects of allergies.

Germicidal lights may sound a little unfamiliar because they aren’t often talked about, but they can help tackle the pollutants annoying you. Even though they’re hidden inside your system, germicidal lights are able to keep germs from multiplying.

Germicidal lights work by releasing UV (ultraviolet) light rays that will penetrate the cell walls of the pollutants in your air, causing enough damage to stop their growth and their capability to multiply. The lights are also working non-stop, even when your system isn’t working, meaning germs are always being destroyed.

In addition to all of the indoor air quality benefits you’ll obtain, germicidal lights also help your heating and cooling system operate at its best. When mold, pet dander, and other microorganisms build up in your system, it can inhibit its performance, decreasing energy efficiency and might even mean higher energy costs. Getting rid of those pollutants means a healthier system and air that’s better to breathe for everyone.

Now that you know about all of the bonuses, there’s really no reason you shouldn’t find out about germicidal lights next time you have air conditioner service done. After all, it does help improve your air quality and may even help you lessen your monthly energy bills.
