How Important is Indoor Air Quality?
Did you know that the EPA has identified indoor air quality as 
one of the top environmental concerns?  With people spending 
90% of their time indoors, air quality is certainly something to 
be concerned about.  
Asthma and allergies are on the rise.  Asthma afflicts over 26 
million North Americans with the number of emergency room 
visits and hospitalizations escalating annually.  Asthma is the 
#1 cause of school absenteeism.
Even the cleanest indoor spaces are home to millions of 
allergy-producing pollen, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) 
and airborne microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses and 
mold.  These pollutants and contaminants can trigger health 
issues ranging from the common cold to severe allergies and 
asthma.  
Mold, mold by-products and their odors are the leading cause 
of allergic symptoms such as sneezing, watery, itchy eye, 
coughing, headaches and sinus congestion. Your heating 
and air conditioning system provides the perfect damp, dark 
breeding ground for mold to grow and thrive. The mold attracts 
dust and dirt that continue to build up on the heating and 
cooling coils, drain pan and ducts.  Every time the system runs, 
it disperses these harmful pollutants into the air that building 
occupants breathe.
What can I do?
By installing the UVC Germicidal Kit, you can benefit from a 
clean, healthy indoor environment.  Designed to fit new and 
existing systems, the UVC Germicidal Kit was developed to 
destroy airborne microorganisms for clean, germ-free air.  
How Does It Work?
UVC is the most effective germicidal wavelength in the 
ultraviolet light spectrum that will destroy the bonds of the 
DNA and RNA of microorganisms, killing or inactivating the 
microbes, surface and airborne mold as well as viruses and 
bacteria.  UVC greatly reduces allergy and asthma symptoms 
and prevents the spread of everyday colds, flus and other 
seasonal illnesses.  
Installed inside your system near the coil, the UVC lamp bathes 
the cooling coil, drain pan and the air with UVC energy.  Its high 
energy wavelength destroys the mold, bacteria and viruses 
that grow there or circulate in the air before they travel around 
your home or building and trigger allergic reactions or spread 
disease.
The UVC Germicidal Kit is effective against:
•  Mold and mold spores
•  Bacteria, including TB, Legionella, E. coli, Listeria, 
Pseudomonas, Serratia and whooping cough
•  Viruses, including colds, flu, measles, mumps and SARS
•  Musty odors produced by mold and its by-products
•  Fouled coils that reduce system performance
The multi-patented UVC lamp offers the highest output and the 
lowest life-cycle cost of any UVC product.  It is reliable and safe 
with 
no ozone or secondary contaminants.
Operation
The UVC lamp operates all the time.  In order to maximize 
germicidal effectiveness, it is recommended that the fan 
selector switch on your home thermostat be in an “on” position 
at all times.
In order to continuously clean the air, the air must be 
circulated past the germicidal lamp.  Running the lamp and fan 
continuously ensures the cleanest air and the best protection 
from irritants and pollutants. 
Maintenance
The UVC Germicidal Kit must be changed at 9,000 hours 
(approximately 12 months) of operation or sooner to maintain 
design output and to ensure germicidal effectiveness.  
The indicator light on the front panel of the power supply 
housing will change from blue to yellow to remind you to 
contact your HVAC contractor.  When the indicator light turns 
red, the lamp must be changed to maintain the highest level of 
air quality.
Blue light: 
up to 7,000 hours
Yellow light:  7,000 to 9,000 hours – time to call for service
Red light: 
replace Kit
