Benefits of Ultraviolet Lights in Commercial HVAC Systems

Having ultraviolet in your AC system provides your commercial space with two main benefits: better air quality and odor suppression. The light helps to neutralize many dangerous contaminants, including:

  • Germs
  • Bacteria
  • Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs)
  • Mold
  • Mildew

Left untreated, these issues can cause unhealthy working conditions, exacerbate respiratory problems, and negatively affect workplace equipment.

Ultraviolet light also helps to neutralize odors, such as the ones that commonly arise from food preparation and storage, biological growths, smoke and much more. In short, having ultraviolet light for A/C can help maintain a safer, healthier work environment for your employees and customers.

How Ultraviolet Lights Improve Indoor Air Quality

Ultraviolet light neutralizes many kinds of microorganisms. The HVAC experts at your local Aire Serv use two main ways to incorporate ultraviolet into the AC system to improve indoor air quality: coil sterilization and air sterilization.

Coil Sterilization: In this setup, UV lights are placed near the AC unit’s evaporator coil. This helps prevent mold and mildew growth by keeping the coil free of microbes and bacteria.

Air Sterilization: Ultraviolet lamp bulbs can also be installed in the air ducts of your HVAC system. This helps clean and sterilize the air by killing viruses, bacteria, or microbes that pass through the ducts.

Ultraviolet Lights for AC FAQs

We’ve seen a lot during our 30-plus years in the HVAC business, so we’re happy to share our knowledge and experience to answer questions you have about HVAC service. Here are answers to some of the frequently asked questions about ultraviolet for AC.

UV lights for AC systems are absolutely worth the cost. This is especially true if your commercial space is involved in food preparation, has high foot traffic, involves industrial VOCs, or otherwise is at risk of having harmful microbes and problematic odors circulating through the space. UV light helps to neutralize these problems and delivers cleaner, safer and healthier air.

Ultraviolet lights for AC units can last up to 9,000 hours before needing to be replaced. This works out to more than a year of life expectancy. To make sure that the UV lights in your AC system are functioning properly and are replaced in a timely manner, it’s best to have a routine HVAC maintenance schedule. Reputable HVAC companies like Aire Serv offer customized maintenance plans featuring scheduled annual maintenance, discounted HVAC services, 24/7 customer service, and much more.

No, HVAC UV lights do not use a significant amount of electricity. Depending on the type and power of the lamp bulbs you choose, your UV lights should use anywhere from 15 to 60 watts each.

This depends on the type of UV light you’re using for AC. Ultraviolet light around the coils inside the AC should remain on to ensure that they are keeping the coil free of contaminants. However, lights in the ductwork will only run when the AC is running.
