Effects of UV Lights on Your Home

UV Light Effects on Your Home in Charlotte

You may not have heard of bioaerosols before. They don’t sound so bad. But you have heard of their more specific names: mold, mildew, and bacteria. Where traditional air filters do a good job removing non-organic pollutants from the air (pet dander, smoke, dust, etc.), you need additional help, especially in moist, humid climates, combating organic threats to you and your family’s health.

Hospitals have long used UV lights to help keep air disinfected. While they do not eliminate 100% of the source of all airborne microorganisms, UV lights installed in ductwork will significantly reduce mold, mildew, and bacteria that otherwise find themselves pushed out of ducts, into the air you breathe.
