BEFORE & AFTER
Healthy Buildings Start With Cleaner Air
UVC & Air Purification Systems
Designing Healthier, Higher-Performing Buildings
The Future of Healthy Buildings
The buildings of tomorrow are expected to do more than meet energy efficiency targets - they must also support occupant health, wellbeing, and long-term building performance. Air Technologies NZ's UVC air purification systems integrate seamlessly into HVAC, ventilation, heat pump, and air conditioning systems, enabling architects to incorporate healthier indoor environments without compromising design intent.
CREATING HEALTHIER ENVIRONMENTS
The Solution: In-duct UVC Technology
UVC light fixtures are strategically positioned within the ductwork or air handler of the HVAC system. This ensures maximum exposure of the circulating air to the germicidal effects of UVC light, effectively eliminating airborne pathogens.
How UVC Works
Continuously irradiating coils, drain pans, and air streams
Preventing microbial growth (mould, bacteria, viruses)
Keeping heat exchange surfaces clean and efficient
Improving air hygiene as air circulates through the system
Depending On The HVAC Configuration, UVC Can Be Installed Within:
Air handling units (AHUs)
Supply and return air systems
Fan coil units
Heat pump systems
Ductwork and mechanical plant
Reduces airborne bacteria, viruses, mould & allergens
Improves indoor air quality for building occupants
Supports healthier, more resilient indoor environments
Keeps HVAC coils clean, improving airflow & energy efficiency
Reduces HVAC maintenance requirements
Extends the lifespan of mechanical plant & equipment
Sustainable and Environmentally Friendly
Unlike chemical disinfectants, UVC light does not produce harmful by-products or contribute to antimicrobial resistance. Its use in air purification systems reduces the need for harsh chemicals, creating a healthier and more environmentally friendly indoor environment for patients, staff, and visitors.
Cleaner Coils - UVC prevents biofilm accumulation on heat exchange surfaces, maintaining optimal thermal efficiency.
Lower Energy - Clean coils transfer heat more efficiently, reducing HVAC energy draw - typically 10-25% improvement in coil efficiency
Less Chemical Cleaning - Reduced frequency of chemical coil cleaning interventions, lowering chemical use, water consumption and contractor costs
Lower Lifecycle Costs - Extended service intervals, delayed capital replacement, and reduced maintenance spend across the HVAC asset lifestyle
Improve HVAC Efficiency & Reduce Energy Costs
Cleaner HVAC systems can work more efficiently.
AirTech UVC systems help prevent the build-up of mould, bacteria and biofilm on HVAC coils and internal components, helping maintain clean heat-transfer surfaces and consistent airflow. By keeping your HVAC system cleaner, UVC can support more efficient operation, reduce the strain on equipment and help minimise unnecessary energy consumption over time.
For commercial buildings, this can contribute to lower operating costs, improved HVAC performance and a longer equipment lifespan — making UVC a smart addition to an energy-conscious building strategy.
Cleaner systems. Better performance. Smarter energy use.
