At Bill Joplin’s Air Conditioning & Heating, we offer Carrier UV lamps and other indoor air quality solutions to help you enjoy a healthier and cleaner indoor environment. Our air conditioning and heating technicians explain the benefits of Carrier UV lamps and the process to have one installed in your home.

How UV Lamps Clean the Air

Ultraviolet (UV) lamps clean the air by emitting radiation much like that produced by the sun. These lamps have germicidal properties and can kill many different strains of mold, bacteria and viruses that invade the air within a home. Carrier UV lamps are outfitted onto the air conditioner’s coils and prevent the growth of pathogens in this dark and moist environment where bacteria would typically thrive. By killing these microorganisms before they can get into your air ducts and throughout your home, the UV lamp purifies the air that you breathe.

Benefits of UV Lamps

UV lamps that are built into your air conditioning system are effortless to use. They are always on and you do not even have to think about them. They do not make any noise while running, so you will not even notice that it is there. The lamp automatically shuts off when the coils are accessed for cleaning or maintenance, eliminating exposure of the light rays to people. UV lamps are energy efficient to use, adding a minimal amount to the cost of operating your central air conditioning system. These lamps even boost the system efficiency of the air conditioner, which may negate the cost of powering the lamp. Your family may enjoy fewer colds, respiratory illnesses and allergy or asthma symptoms, which could save you a significant amount of money on doctor’s visits and medication costs. There is no price to put on good health, but the cost of a UV lamp is small compared to the benefits they offer.
