Enjoy healthier air with germicidal UV lights for HVAC
Core features, performance and environmental benefits
Proven disinfection technology that inactivates bacteria and viruses in the HVAC airstream and bio-growth on HVAC internal surfaces.
Saves energy because UV prevents insulating bio-growth promoted by condensate from forming on HVAC cooling coil. High HVAC coil efficiency is maintained 24/7 which mean fewer running hours to keep you home comfortable.
Provides allergy relief by destroying allergens and preventing allergen-generating bio-growth inside the HVAC system.
Prevents HVAC "dirty-sock smell caused by HVAC bio-growth
Reduces HVAC wear and tear by reducing running hours
UV-C Air and Surface Disinfection
Ultravation® UltraMAX EZUV™ Remote Lamp UV fits any HVAC system
Easy-to-fit! Comes with a super-compact, electronic power supply that fits any HVAC configuration.
UV Lamp Monitoring: Reminds of lamp replacement time.
Adjustable UV shield option
One or two lamps: Add a second UV lamp can be added as needed—EZ-Light 6P.
Multi-voltage operation: Optional 110-240VAC or 24VAC transformer available.
Flex Bracket mount for compatibility with any HVAC system.
Ozone Free UltraMAX EZUV conforms to UL 2998 (3rd Edition, July 10, 2020) clause 6.2, emittance of ozone not exceeding a concentration of 0.005 ppm.
The UltraMAX EZUV system is covered by a ten-year warranty. The UV lamp has a one-year warranty. See owner's manual for complete details.
EZUV can be installed in nearly any HVAC system. The UV lamp installation diagram shows some options when placed for the disinfection of an A-type cooling coil. You contractor will advise on which set-up is best for you. Lamps are often positioned to disinfect the HVAC blower and drain pan areas in addition to the coil.
Why add UV lights to my HVAC system?
UV lights create healthier air through natural disinfection with no by-products
Healthier air for home or office: Ultravation UV lights installed in your HVAC system will kill harmful airborne bacteria, viruses and allergens in the air circulating through HVAC duct work as well as on HVAC surfaces such as the coil, drain pan and blower, keeping microbial infestation from growing and releasing offspring (allergens) into the air distributed to occupied spaces.
UV is a natural, environmentally friendly method for disinfection that involves no chemicals and creates no by products. Its germicidal characteristics were recognized and put to use as early as 1904 in some medical applications. Since the 1930s, it has been used for the disinfection of air, water and surfaces in many industries, ranging from food to pharmaceuticals, water and even wastewater treatment. Today, the benefits of UV are being applied to indoor air quality improvement to create healthier, fresher, more allergen-free indoor air. In fact, UV-C light is the only air disinfection technology recognized as effective by ASHRAE (the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers).
Silent, non-intrusive and safe to use: Installs inside the HVAC system for whole house coverage, with no noisy, intrusive appliances taking up space, and the germicidal UV light does its job inside the HVAC system, without injecting any chemicals or other substances into the air.
Some examples of applications include:
• Homes
• Offices
• Schools
• Industry
• Restaurants
• Medical facilities
• Pet centers
• Cruise ships
• Hotels
• Military
• Bus stations
• Retail shops
UV lights are likely to save more energy than they consume
BEFORE: Normally wet HVAC cooling coils (above) are an ideal breeding ground for bio-growth that clogs air flow, releases spores (allergens) and reduces HVAC efficiency (which wastes energy!).
WITH UV-C LIGHT: Bio-growth is prevented, airborne bacteria and viruses are killed and cooling efficiency is optimized.
Over time, bio-growth infests wet cooling coils as they remove moisture from the air. Even a thin bio-film on cooling coil measuring a few thousandths of an inch fins acts as an insulator, cutting HVAC efficiency by 40% to 50%. This means HVAC system has to work harder (longer) to cool or heat the air, wasting energy. UV prevents this from happening.
Bio-growth inside an HVAC system can release spores and other allergens into the air stream and on to occupied spaces.
UV-C light stops HVAC surface bio-growth which continually keeps HVAC cooling efficiency optimized. This saves significant energy, and in fact, the UV system can pay for itself over time through lowered electric bills.
Independent tests confirm the performance of Ultravation UV lights
Independent Testing: Bacteria, viruses and other airborne biologicals are drawn into HVAC circulation and pass through filtration. An Ultravation UV light not only prevents HVAC infestation it will destroy harmful microorganisms in the airstream as they pass through the UV light. Independent tests of Ultravation UV disinfection products show that microbes can be killed in as little as two-seconds of exposure. See pathogen reduction graph.

Need a second UV lamp? Solution! The EZ-Light 6P™ add-on accessory
Germicidal UV Light Plug-in Upgrade Kit for UltraMAX EZUV
Add a second UV disinfection zone to keep your HVAC interior free of bio-growth while increasing airstream disinfection.
A second UV lamp creates a second germicidal area Increasing HVAC airstream disinfection
Keeps HVAC coil, drain pan and blower and other wet HVAC interior surfaces bio-growth free
Saves energy by maintaining peak HVAC efficiency
The EZ-Light 6P, an add-on remote lamp, connects directly to most Ultravation® systems and provides additional germicidal UV-C light to keep the HVAC coil and surrounding surfaces clean of clogging and insulating biofilms that reduce energy efficiency and can be a major source of mold allergen—saving energy, and reducing HVAC maintenance and repair costs—and while increasing airstream disinfection.
Your HVAC professional can advise after inspection whether a second UV lamp is advisable.
