If you are looking for an efficient, clean and affordable way to improve your home’s indoor air quality, consider installing a UV air filter. Let’s take a closer look at a few of the benefits of a UV air filter as well as how easy it is to have one installed in your house.
UV Filters Don’t Produce Any Byproducts
A typical air purifier that comes with a HEPA filter is going to produce ozone that can be harmful to your health. Meanwhile, a UV filter is only going to target odors, bacteria and viruses in the air without adding anything that could be harmful to your health.
They Are Relatively Easy to Maintain
As there aren’t a lot of moving parts, you won’t have to spend a lot of time and money maintaining a UV filter. You also don’t have to worry about changing out your filter like you would with a traditional paper product. Therefore, you can simply set your UV product up and forget about it for most of its useful life.
UV Air Filters Adjust to the Environment
A UV filter will have a sensor attached to it that monitors the air quality to adjust how hard it works at any given time. This means that it won’t run when it doesn’t need to, which can reduce wear and tear on the product and extend its useful life. Of course, a typical UV filter is almost silent when in operation so you won’t notice it much even if it runs all day. However, it will typically run most during the early morning and evening hours when people are more likely to be home.
Add a UV Filter to Your Existing HVAC System
In many cases, you can simply add a new filter to your existing furnace. Doing so means that you can get the benefits of this product without having to spend thousands of dollars altering your home’s current HVAC infrastructure. The team at One Hour can explain the installation process and how we can improve your home without causing a significant interruption to your life.
Improve Your Physical and Mental Health
A UV filter can help alleviate symptoms of allergies or asthma such as sneezing, itchy eyes or a runny nose. It can also help to alleviate the congestion that comes with mold, dust or pollen allergies. Congestion and stuffiness in your nose, head or lungs may keep you up at night or reduce the quality of any sleep that you do get.
Improving the quality of your sleep can improve your mental health because you’ll be less irritable during the day. You’ll also be less likely to make mistakes at work or school, which can improve your standing with your peers. Ultimately, you’ll likely see an improvement in your mood and quality of life.
