UV-C systems inside Air Handling Units are becoming a useful add-on for improving coil hygiene, reducing biological growth, and supporting better HVAC reliability.
But UV-C is not magic. It must be designed, installed, controlled, and maintained correctly. (UV-C Systems Inside AHUs: Design Benefits and Limitations)
🔹 What UV-C Does Inside AHUs
✅ Helps reduce biofilm on cooling coils
✅ Controls microbial growth on wet surfaces
✅ Keeps drain pans cleaner
✅ Reduces odor risk from biological buildup
✅ Supports better coil heat transfer over time
✅ Helps maintain lower airside pressure drop
✅ Improves long-term AHU hygiene
