Perhaps you\u2019ve resolved to adopt habits geared towards improving health. Why not start by making the air that you breathe in your home healthier?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s been proven that a home\u2019s indoor air quality (IAQ) is often worse than the air outside. Portable air filters only go so far. You need a whole house solution to address this issue. That\u2019s why we offer <a href=\"\/indoor-air-quality\/uv-air-purifier\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">UV air purifier services<\/a>. Read on to learn about the many benefits of these systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Is a UV Air Purifier?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>How was your health during the holiday season? Perhaps your household was plagued by colds, flu, or respiratory viruses that hindered your enjoyment of the holidays. 2023 had a huge surge in colds and flu with symptoms that for many people, lingered for weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A UV air purifier is the ideal solution for combatting germs and viruses in your home. Whenever you go to work and your kids go to school, you\u2019re potentially bringing back germs and viruses home with you where they recirculate in the air.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>UV air purifiers work by shooting UV light across the apex of your HVAC system\u2019s ductwork. It essentially targets your air at the source where it\u2019s then distributed throughout your home.\u00a0The UV light is harmless to humans and pets but can kill airborne organisms such as viruses, bacteria, and mold on contact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Is a Whole House UV Purifier Better than a Portable Unit?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Portable units can only work on a small area of one room. You\u2019d need several to even attempt to clean the same amount of air that a whole house system can easily tackle. With a whole house system, the UV light stretches across the entire width of the air ducts. This ensures the maximum efficiency for the minimum amount of space.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Are UV Air Purifiers Safe?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You may be thinking that UV light is harmful. After all, isn\u2019t that the type of light that can cause sunburns and skin cancer? We want to assure you that when the system is installed by a professional HVAC company, a whole house UV air purifier is completely safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ll install the system within your HVAC system\u2019s ductwork. You won\u2019t even see it: it\u2019s out of sight and out of mind. Even if you were to come into contact with it, it wouldn\u2019t be harmful because these systems use a different type of UV radiation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, a poor installation job can disrupt all of that, leading to misaligned UV lamps and other problems that can interfere with the system\u2019s efficacy. You can rely on us to do the job right.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You may have also heard that these systems can produce ozone. This was true of some older models, but these have been phased out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you think a UV air purifier is a good investment for your home, or you already own one and need maintenance or repairs on it, pick up the phone and call us today!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><a href=\"\/contact\/send-message\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Contact Fulmer Heating &amp; Cooling<\/strong><\/a><strong> today for UV air purifier services in Pomaria, SC!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Portable air filters only go so far.
