Regular UV Light is not effective in your ductwork. In order for the UV light to do anything, the particles must be within a certain distance from the bulb (4") for a certain period of time. In a central ac/heat system this is impossible because the air just blows right past the light. As a result the light does nothing for you but allow you to spend your money and give you a false sense of security.

Sorry to disagree Mr Clean Air, But 80% of all mold, virus and bacteria passing within site of UV-C will be rendered harmless, destroyed or at least have its DNA scrambled so it can not reproduce as long as it passes at accectable speed. Generally 500 fpm velocity. UV-A or B are not nearly as effective.
