Through the spring, summer, and fall, allergies are a constant. No matter when seasonal allergies area a nuisance for you or your family, the need for relief never ends. Whether it is mold, pet dander, or some other bacteria that is hurting your indoor air quality, germicidal lights could help lessen the effects of allergies.

Germicidal lights may sound a little unfamiliar because they aren’t mentioned often, but they can help tackle the contaminants bothering you. Even though they’re hidden inside your system, germicidal lights can keep germs from multiplying.

Germicidal lights work by releasing UV (ultraviolet) light rays that will penetrate the cell walls of the pollutants in your air, causing enough damage to stop their growth and their capability to multiply. The lights are also working non-stop, even when your system isn’t operating, meaning germs are always being destroyed.

In addition to all of the indoor air quality benefits you’ll obtain, germicidal lights also help your heating and cooling system operate at its best.
