UV Germicidal Light Installation in Chicago, IL
UV germicidal lights are one of the most effective ways to clean the air inside a Chicago home and Eco Temp HVAC installs them to target mold, bacteria, and viruses right where they grow. Through Chicago’s long heating season and humid summers, the cool, damp evaporator coil inside your HVAC system becomes a breeding ground for mold and biofilm. A UV light mounted at the coil neutralizes that growth, so the air circulating through your home stays cleaner, fresher, and healthier all year long.
As your local indoor air quality experts, we install both coil-mounted UV-C lights and whole-home purification systems like the Air Scrubber by Aerus which combines UV light with ActivePure technology to reduce contaminants on surfaces and in the air throughout every room, not just at the coil. Whatever your home needs, we’ll recommend the right UV system, install it cleanly,
and back it with honest, upfront pricing.

Frequently Asked Questions About UV Germicidal Lights in Chicago
What Chicago homeowners ask about UV germicidal lights and whole-home UV purification — what they target, safety, ozone, upkeep, and how they fit with the rest of your system. Call (224) 253-8131 or book online to find out what fits your home.
A coil UV light mounts inside your system and shines on the evaporator coil, killing the mold and biofilm that grow there — keeping the coil clean and treating air as it passes by. The Air Scrubber by Aerus we install is an active system: it uses UV light with ActivePure technology to send purifying molecules throughout your home, reducing contaminants on surfaces and in the air in every room, not just at the coil. We'll recommend the right approach for your goals.
UV targets the biological side of air quality — mold, bacteria, and many viruses, plus the musty odors that come from microbial growth on a damp coil. Active systems like the Air Scrubber by Aerus also help with surface contaminants and odors throughout the home. What UV doesn't do is capture dust and pollen — those are particles, which is the job of a filter or air cleaner.
Quality UV-C germicidal lights don't, and the Air Scrubber by Aerus is designed to be ozone-free. What to avoid is cheap "ozone generator" devices marketed as purifiers — those intentionally create ozone, which is itself a lung irritant. We only install proven, ozone-safe equipment.
Yes. The lamp is sealed inside your ductwork or air handler, so no one in the home is exposed to the UV-C light during normal operation — you get the benefit without the exposure. Our technicians take standard precautions whenever they service it.
Most often right at the evaporator coil inside your air handler or furnace, where mold and biofilm form on the cool, damp AC surfaces. Some setups also place UV in the return or supply ductwork to treat moving air. We position it where it'll do the most good for your specific system.
A traditional UV-C bulb is usually replaced about once a year — it keeps glowing long after its germ-killing output fades, so the calendar matters more than whether it still lights up. The Air Scrubber by Aerus uses a longer-life cell and is largely maintenance-free, with periodic cell replacement per the manufacturer and a limited lifetime warranty on the unit. We can handle replacements during a regular service visit.
No — they do different jobs. UV handles microbes and mold; a filter or air cleaner captures particles like dust, pollen, and dander. If allergies are your main concern, filtration does the heavy lifting and UV adds microbial protection. Most homes get the best results pairing the two.
It depends on the type of system and how it integrates with your equipment, so we quote it upfront after looking at your setup. Eco Home Program members get 10% off air purification products, and we offer financing on larger installations.
Call (224) 253-8131 or book online. We install and service UV germicidal lights and whole-home purification across Chicago and the suburbs — and can fit it into your broader indoor air quality plan.
