UV Lights & Air Purifiers for Hialeah buildings
Original ductwork in 1960s Hialeah homes is often sheet metal with insulation that has broken down, or fibreglass duct board that has started to shed. Leaks in those ducts pull hot, dusty attic air into the house. A camera inspection tells us whether cleaning, sealing or replacement is the sensible fix.
The indoor coil is cold, wet and dark, which makes it an ideal place for mould and bacteria to grow. A UV-C lamp mounted beside the coil keeps its surface and the drain pan clean, which protects airflow and cuts down the musty smell many Florida systems develop.
In-duct air purifiers go further and treat the air as it moves through the system. We explain what each technology does and does not do, and install units that are certified for low ozone emission.
Good reasons to add one
- Recurring musty or 'dirty sock' smell from the vents
- Visible growth on the coil or in the drain pan
- Drain line that clogs repeatedly
- Allergy or asthma sufferers in the home
Installation
- We clean the coil and pan first, since a UV lamp maintains a clean coil but does not scrub a dirty one.
- We mount the lamp or purifier at the coil or in the supply plenum and wire it to the system.
- We note the bulb replacement date, usually every one to two years.
UV Lights & Air Purifiers in Hialeah: questions
Do UV lights remove dust?
No. UV-C light affects living organisms such as mould and bacteria. Dust and dander are captured by filtration, so the two are normally used together.
Is a permit required for HVAC work in Hialeah?
Installing or replacing air conditioning equipment in Hialeah requires a mechanical permit and a final inspection. Permits here are issued by the City of Hialeah Building Department. Repairs, maintenance and cleaning do not need one. We file the paperwork and attend the inspection.
Do your technicians speak Spanish?
Yes. You can book, get your diagnosis and receive your written quote in Spanish or English.
My Hialeah home has an addition that never cools properly. What can you do?
Additions and enclosed garages are usually connected to a system that was sized for the original house. We calculate the load of the added space and either rebalance the ductwork or install a dedicated ductless mini split, which is typically the more reliable fix. New equipment is permitted through the City of Hialeah Building Department.
