The health of your family is most important and the Germicidal UV Light can help keep it that way!

This product keeps your heating and cooling system free of mold, fungal contamination, and improves the air quality throughout your home, which has shown to help people with respiratory issues and bad allergies.

A germicidal UV light is installed inside your air handler or near the cooling coil to target biological growth. It uses specific wavelengths of light to neutralize mold, fungi, and bacteria as air circulates through the system. This continuous process helps keep the internal components clean and prevents microbes from spreading through your vents.
Installing a UV light helps stop mold growth on cooling coils and eliminates the musty odors often caused by biological buildup. It keeps the internal surfaces of your HVAC system cleaner, which supports better airflow and more consistent performance. This is especially helpful for households sensitive to allergens or indoor air pollutants.
UV lights are safe when professionally installed because the bulbs are contained entirely within the metal HVAC cabinet. There is no direct light exposure in your living spaces, and our technicians ensure the unit is professionally shielded during the process. You get the benefits of a cleaner system without any safety risks to people or pets.
Most UV light installations are completed in a single visit and take about 1 to 2 hours. Our technicians mount the device inside your existing equipment with very little disruption to your daily routine. Once the light is wired and secured, it begins working immediately to help keep your system clean.
UV light does not replace your air filter; instead, it works alongside it to improve air quality. Filters are designed to capture physical particles like dust and hair, while the UV light addresses microscopic growth that filters might miss. Using both together provides a more thorough approach to keeping your HVAC system clean.
The UV bulb generally needs to be replaced every 12 months to remain effective. Even if the bulb still appears to glow, it loses strength over time and requires a new lamp to maintain performance. Replacing the bulb during your annual cooling tune-up is a simple way to ensure the system stays protected.

We had an HVAC inspection appointment today. Jeremiah was our technician. Very nice and informative. He showed us a filter on our system that we weren’t aware of and cleaned it. Our previous company had never pointed it out to us.

The first time we used Southern Goodman was when we came home to a non-functioning AC unit. We were so appreciative of how quickly they were able to get someone to our house to address the problem. I find their maintenance plans to be reasonably priced.
Nathan, the tech who came to do our regularly scheduled maintenance was extremely thorough.

They have come by twice at the behest of our management company. We have loved both times. They are kind, efficient, and explain everything they are doing. Today they replace our water heater and found a dead mouse, took it upon themselves to take care of it for us. Above and beyond!

He made the effort to communicate things thoroughly to me and even my husband over the phone whom was away at the time. Rest assured you will be respected and taken care of here.
