There are many types of air filtration systems, all with their own method of removing pollutants from the air in your home. Achieving good indoor air quality is a lot more important than you may realize, contributing to your health and the health of your family. Passing biological pollutants through a filtering material or giving them an electric charge is beneficial, but not always completely effective in purifying your air. So how can a UV air purifier help you?
It Keeps Your System’s Components Clean
Not all pollutants can be simply filter out of the air. Dirt and dust can, however biological pollutants have proven to be a different type of challenge. Biological pollutants include mold, viruses, and bacteria. These can all result in ill effects for you and your family. The pollutants build up in dark, moist environments, such as the inside components of your HVAC system. A traditional air filter simply cannot reach or eliminate these, but a UV lamp effectively kills them.
Can It Really Keep Me Healthy?
Micro-organisms like bacteria and mold do not contribute to healthy breathing. Without a way to eliminate these micro-organisms, those who suffer from allergies likely experience symptoms even if they think their home is clean. Eliminating dust and pet dander is not enough though. A UV air purifier causes cellular damage to and destroys germs, viruses, bacteria, and fungi, reducing the number of airborne allergens that plague many people.
Does It Really Work?
There is so much trust in these systems that there’s been a steady increase in their use in many commercial settings, including hospitals. They work in conjunction with HEPA (high efficiency particulate arrestor) filters to create a sterilized environment. Companies have even reported fewer illnesses in the workplace after installing a UV air purifier.
