<h1>UV Light Air Cleaners: Your Best Move If You Have Mold</h1>

Mold is becoming more and more well-known as a cause of allergies, asthma, chronic fatigue, and some major health problems like heart disease, neurological disorders, and even cancer. And one of the places where mold spores live and multiply is along with the dust & fibers in the ducts of your HVAC system, stuck to the inside walls of the ducts all over your house, releasing live mold spores, bacteria, & other germs all day long. It’s also been shown in research that over 80% of homes have some level of mold spores floating around. And other than buying a dehumidifier and HEPA air purifier system, if you know or even think you have mold, one of the best moves you can make is to install a UV light air cleaner in your central air conditioning ducts. 

 

Both duct mounted and portable UV air treatment systems kill mold by releasing two powerful types of germ killing power—the UV-C light rays and healthy negative OH- ions, not ozone. The UV light rays are measured in ‘light units’ and each laboratory grade 36 watt bulb releases about 24,000 light units, enough to kill about 70% of most strains of mold, bacteria, and other organisms, on contact. The UV light not only destroys their cell structure, but also their DNA, which makes it impossible for them to reproduce any longer. Two laboratory strength 36 watt bulbs placed 30 inches apart in the air conditioner or furnace duct has been shown in lab tests results to kill over 99% of all strains of bacteria, mold, viruses, even algae. And, as the UV light comes in contact with water molecules in the air, OH- negative ions are created as the light removes a H from H2O. The OH- ion also destroys bacterial, mold cell & viral protein structure, preventing them from multiplying as well. Negative ions also help freshen the air by disintegrating many airborne compounds found in most home & office air, including pet dander odors, mildew smell, cooking odors, and other tough odors.

 

It’s important, however, to make sure that when you purchase a portable UV air purifier or HVAC UV system that it has several important features or the unit may not kill the mold or help very much with mildew smell & other odors. First, the duct mounted UV bulbs in the air purifier unit must be at least 36 watts and release only UV-C light rays. Thirty six watts is the strength found effective in laboratory tests—anything less will leave organisms (including tougher strains of mold) alive and well. Second, for best results, make sure there are two 36 watt bulbs placed 30 inches apart—two bulbs placed 30 inches apart gives you a true 48,000 UV-C light units, an amount proven in research to kill over 99% of mold, bacteria, viruses, even algae. For portable units, you need at least 10-20 watt bulbs for effective germicidal action. SunPure's TRIO unit and AllerAir units are some of the most effective portable units.   

 

You can get a noticeable difference and about 70% mold kill on the first pass with one 36 watt bulb, but again, for best results, we recommend a double UV bulb system. Also, be sure to place the UV light air purifier system on the output side of the HVAC or central air conditioning system to make sure it has a chance to kill all the mold & bacteria that often grow on the coil and release spores, etc, as the air blows by—otherwise, the mold & bacteria get a chance to blow out into your room for you to breathe first.
