How Does UV Light Purify Air in a Home?
A UV (Ultraviolet) light purifier is a system that works alongside your preinstalled HVAC system. The light purifier releases UV-C light, which will cut into any pathogens contained in your home’s circulated air.
The energy from the UV light breaks down the cellular structure of everything from viruses to mold. Through this process, any contaminants are completely neutralized, preventing the risk of further reproduction or possible harm to any individuals.
This differs from standard air filtration systems, as most filters will prevent contaminants but over time become dirty and clogged. A UV light purifier requires no filter, allowing for constant purification of your circulating air.
Reasons to Install A UV Lamp Inside Your HVAC System
You live and breathe your home’s air every day, so figuring out if it is clean is a hard thing to investigate. If you have a sneaking suspicion that your air is negatively harming you, look for these common signs:
- Poor Air Filtration – If your HVAC contains air filters, in some cases, they will be unable to filter out contaminants, especially as they get used more and more. A UV light purifier doesn’t risk these issues as it cuts and breaks down the bacteria.
- Increase in Allergies – If you start noticing an increase in headaches, itchy eyes, or sneezing, this can mean the air contains allergens causing you to feel sick.
- Leaking Ducts – Cracks and breaks within your ductwork allow contaminants in the air to start piling up within your HVAC. This not only allows for more pathogens to be dispersed in the air circulation, but it’s also a perfect place for bacteria and mold to grow.

How UV Light Installation Enhances Your HVAC System
When humidity rises, your HVAC system can be a breeding ground for contaminants such as viruses and fungi. This leads to a drastic decrease in your air quality, creating a higher risk of illness. A UV light purifier eliminates these kinds of accumulations.
A UV lamp emits a light that destroys both the DNA and RNA of any microorganisms that are contained within the air. This not only neutralizes the harmful nature of the contaminants but also prevents them from duplicating. The result is a completely purified HVAC airflow, allowing for crisp and healthy air to breathe in your home.
Is It Safe to Use a UV Air Purifier?
With how strong UV light sounds when eliminating bacteria, it’s not a surprise to think it’s dangerous to use. Luckily, for air purification means, a UV light air purifier is completely safe to use. The purifier utilizes short-wave UV light, which is developed to prevent any accidental exposure and ozone generation.
It should be noted that minor exposure to UV light does not cause any harm to individuals. However, Total Comfort takes strides to maintain customer safety, so during installation we position our purifiers to shine upwards, preventing any exposure to those below.
6 Benefits of Installing a UV Air Purifier
The process of completely breaking down the structure of contaminants like viruses and bacteria benefits your home in many ways. These benefits include:
1. Improves Air Quality
The UV light purifier eliminates any germs and bacteria as air circulates throughout the home. This purification process allows for the air you and your family breathe to be completely healthy.
2. Fights and Prevents Mold Growth
Bacteria find the best spot to begin growing, which tends to be dark and humid locations like your AC. A UV air purifier quickly eliminates the present bacteria and prevents any further spread throughout the home.
3. Increases Your HVAC System Efficiency
The growth of bacteria not only affects your health but also your HVAC effectiveness. A UV light eliminates bacteria that can block airflow allowing your system to work more efficiently, even reducing your utility bills along the way.
4. Improves Air Flow
The light from the UV germicidal lamp breaks down any bacteria accumulation within your ducts. This prevents blockages to the airflow, allowing efficient and effective circulation.
5. Reduces Allergens and Viruses
Contaminants in the air that get dispersed around the home can cause you and your family to suffer from issues like headaches and sneezing. A UV purifier destroys these viruses before they spread, reducing the risk of colds and allergies.
6. Extends HVAC System Life
Sections of your HVAC, like your air conditioner, produce moisture and create a perfect environment for bacteria and mold to begin growing. With enough buildup, this directly affects the performance of your HVAC system, even causing sudden breakdowns. A UV light eliminates any bacteria accumulation, sparing you from extensive and expensive HVAC repairs.
