    UV lights are used on air systems

    Hot water and steam systems don't use them.

    Try a Hot Air web site, like this one...

    I have used

    The light sold by Field Controls. Easy to install and maintain.

    The biggest problem I see is getting the homeowner to have that expensive bulb replaced every year.

    UV's

    Honeywell's models are the UV100A1000,1018 &1059. The first two are designed to be installed in the return air duct of a forced air or hydroair heating/cooling system. The UV100A1059 is designed to be used in the cooling coil area of a forced air, hydroair or heatpump system. It's primary job is to kill any slime, algae or mold that may grow on the moist cooling coils or in a drain pan that doesn't drain completely. Go to www.honeywell.com/yourhome and type in UV100A for more information. These are restricted items available from Honeywell PerfectClimate or Enviracaire Elite distributors only.

    most drain pans in hot air units arent rated for use with uv light. they can be damaged if the light is too close
