How UV Lights Can Improve Air Quality
It's flu season and the spread of germs is spread in so many different ways. Your home's HVAC system can be a blessing or a curse when it comes to air purification. The transmission of the bacteria can be controlled or even accelerated from the air system. Basically, the same system that circulates the air can circulate this bacteria.
