Filtration systems equipped with short-wavelength ultraviolet (UV-C) waves can reduce dust, pet dander, odors, and germs. The UVC light emitted by ultraviolet ozone generators can be lethal to mold and mildew, which are the source of some odors. Especially in water-damaged areas, additional moisture can become a breeding ground for harmful pathogens. Ultraviolet germicidal bulbs emit light that is deadly to these microbes and destroy the source of part of the odor.Ultraviolet (UV) lights placed inside the boiler and ducts can stop odors caused by the forced air heating system.

UV light can damage eyesight and skin, which is why it's so advantageous to place them inside your HVAC system.Your trusted HVAC contractor can install UV lights inside the ducts and fan compartment to control mold growth. However, UV devices that emit germicidal light and generate ozone are available from some of the same UVC equipment manufacturers. Using UV-C light to remove odors is an effective way to keep your home smelling fresh and clean.
It is also a safe and cost-effective solution that is becoming more and more customary.
