Enjoy healthier air with germicidal UV lights for HVAC

UltraMAX Gold Extreme logo
UltraMAX Gold UV-C Air and Surface Disinfection

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 bio-growth that causes “HVAC dirty-sock smell”

Optimizes cooling efficiency, reducing HVAC wear and tear.

 

UltraMAX Gold Extreme can be installed in nearly any HVAC system. The UV lamp installation options diagram shown here shows some options when placed for the disinfection of an A-type cooling coil. Your 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.

UltraMAX GOLD Extreme — The most powerful and versatile UV lights for HVAC

UltraMAX Gold Extreme is designed for the most demanding UV disinfection need with a powerful power supply and convenient features. Ready to handle two remote UV lamps and control panel with LED status display and power switch to manually shut down the system for extended away-time.

UltraMAX Gold Extreme Series Special Features

Ultravation T3™ UV Lamp technology: Provides up to 40% more UV than other systems. Available in 18,000 and 27,000-hour models.

Two UV lamp-ready: UltraMAX Gold easily handles two UV lamps for HVAC systems requiring more disinfection coverage if needed — the EZ-Light 6P for double the germicidal coverage at the cooling coil and drain pan or add the EZ-Light-4-DUV, the DRAINLight UV accessory add-on*, to disinfect the HVAC condensate running from the drain pan into the drain lines to address biological infestation such as Zooglea (white drain slime) and other bio-growth.

High-Frequency Electronic Power Supply: ESP3 Power Supply optimizes UV-C output, adjusting for lamp status/temperature. Smart lamp management extends lamp life and saves energy.

UVLampMonitor™: Displays system status. Reminds of lamp replacement time.

Power Switch: Facilitates easy service and shut down for an extended time for unneeded HVAC disinfection such as for vacation homes.

Additional Features

Adjustable UV shield included, to prevent UV exposure to UV sensitive areas inside the HVAC system.

Multi-voltage operation: Available in 24VAC or 110-240VAC models.

Flex Bracket mount for compatibility with any HVAC system.

Excludes UV Lamps

Ultravation® UltraMAX Gold Extreme has a built-in connection that allows for the addition of a UV light or PCO module without the cost of a separate power supply.

Add a UV Light

Ultravation EZ-Light 6P THM navAdd an EZ-Light 6P plug-in upgrade kit to extend your UV disinfection coverage for those hard-to-reach areas or double your HVAC airstream disinfection power.

Drainlight UV upgrade installation kitOr, add the EZ-Light-4-DUV, the DRAINLight UV accessory*, to disinfect the HVAC condensate running from the drain pan into the drain line to help keep Zoogloea, the white drain slime, and other bio-growth from creating clogs.

*Not compatible with UVC-Advantage or UltraMAX systems already powering two UV-C lamps.

Add air purification

Add an Ultravation's PCO air purifier for Photocatalytic (PCO) air purification:

UVPhotoMAX GI air purifier with UV light glowUltravation's UVPhotoMAX provides active-adjustable PCO air purification for HVAC that reduces odors, VOCs and airborne microbes.


UVCatalyst 
PCO air purifier features activated-carbon air contamination capture technology and is effective in the adsorption of odors and other airborne contamination.

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

Dirty HVAC coil

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!).

Clean UV treated coil

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 coGreen homeoling 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.

Ultravation’s innovative T3™ UV-C lamp system provides up to 40% more UV and a lamp life of up to 3 years!

For maximum performance at the lowest cost, Ultravation developed the T3™ UV lamp system to provide up to 40% higher intensity UV-C output without increased energy consumption. The patented T3™ UV lamp design optimizes UV output of the lamp through thermal stabilization. Available with 18,000-hour or 27,000-hour lamp life.

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.

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.
