Did you know that indoor air can be two to five times more polluted than outdoor air, according to the Environmental Protection Agency? The presence of airborne germs, mold, bacteria, and fungi contributes to unhealthy indoor environments and can cause allergies in over 50% of homes, as reported by the World Health Organization. Fortunately, Field Controls offers an effective solution to combat these issues: UV lamp technology.

UV energy waves generated by UV lamps have proven lethal to microorganisms found in indoor air. Field Controls’ UV air purifiers, such as the UV Air, Duo, Trio, and Flexmount models, utilize UV lamp technology to neutralize germs and prevent their replication. By installing a UV lamp in your HVAC duct system, every molecule of air will pass over the lamp 75 to 150 times per day, effectively reducing airborne germs.

Moreover, these UV lamps have an added benefit: they keep AC coils clean. AC coils, typically located in dark places, are prone to mold growth and toxic biofilm accumulation, which can release germs into the air whenever the system cycles. With a UV lamp near the AC coil, the coil stays clean, allowing the AC system to run efficiently, saving energy costs, reducing maintenance, and extending the equipment’s lifespan.

Field Controls’ UV air purification systems have been extensively tested and proven effective in reducing airborne germs. Independent lab tests show a minimum of 90% reduction in test bacteria with a single airflow pass through the duct system.

Ultra violet energy waves generated by UV lamp technology are lethal to the microorganisms found in indoor air. In fact, the treatment of indoor air with UV generating lamps has been successful in healthcare facilities, food processing plants, schools, laboratories, and other locations. UV can also control the spread of airborne germs inside a home. Airborne germs like mold, viruses bacteria and fungi. This is important for homeowners. The Environmental Protection Agency states that indoor air can be as is two to five times more polluted than the air we breathe outdoors. Plus research from World Health Organization says that biological contaminants in indoor air are caused for over fifty percent of home allergies. Quite simply, indoor air can be dirty and unhealthy. A u lamp mounted in the HVAC duct system can be effective in controlling bacteria and germs in indoor air. The UV lamp neutralizes the germ fuel's DNA and makes them unable to replicate. As indoor air circulates through the duct system, it's consistently bathed in UV light based on the design of air systems, each molecule of air will circulate through or pass over the lamp seventy five to one hundred and fifty times a day. Independence lab tests indicate that field controls UV's have a significant and cumulative effect on the concentration of airborne germs in the home. According to Kain Environmental Assays, sanitary and Environmental Microbiology, Field controls UV lamps yield at least a ninety percent reduction of the test bacteria with a single airflow pass through a duct system at typical airflow rates. This efficiency will not be the same for all bacteria, and molds, since each organism requires different exposure times at the same UV output energy level. While Field controls UV lamp air purifiers reduce airborne germs, they also keep AC coils clean. AC coils are in most dark places. The perfect breeding ground for mold and toxic bio film that releases germs into the each time the system cycles. When a UV lamp is placed near the AC coil, it keeps the coil clean. Allowing the AC system to run efficiently, which saves on energy costs, reduces maintenance and extends the life of the equipment. Field controls manufacture a full line of whole house air purification systems that feature UV Lamb technology. Depending on the size of the a UV air, Duo, Trio, and Flexmount, UV will help purify indoor air and keep AC coils clean. Go to field control dot com slash u v dash air to learn more. For indoor air that's fresh clean and pure. Field controls, improving indoor environments.

Solar panels installed in 2020 could supply 21% of solar silver by 2035

Solar panels installed in 2020 could supply 21% of solar silver by 2035

Recycling solar panels installed in 2020 could supply up to 21% of the silver needed for new panel production by 2035. Technical advances are making panel recycling more economic. Buyers and asset owners can start modeling recycled supply and retirement value.

  • 01Panels installed in 2020 could supply up to 21% of the silver needed for solar panel production in 2035, a 15-year lag that suggests recycled supply could be estimated from installation records.
  • 02European researchers estimate recycling could cover about 25% of cobalt and 15% of lithium, nickel and manganese supply by 2030.
  • 03A recycler's recovery rate means little without its purity: TNO's laser process reported roughly 97% yield with silver at 99.7% purity, the pairing that tells a manufacturer whether the metal is usable.

Massachusetts queue delays put 2027 solar tax credits at risk

Massachusetts queue delays put 2027 solar tax credits at risk

Catalyst Power says interconnection delays are now a tax-credit risk, not just a schedule risk. In Massachusetts, a project tied to a 2029 transmission upgrade could miss the Dec. 31, 2027 deadline that SEIA says now governs many solar projects, putting 30% to 50% of ITC value at risk.

  • 01SEIA says solar projects that begin construction after July 4, 2026 must be placed in service by Dec. 31, 2027.
  • 02FERC's cluster-study reforms set study deadlines and late-study penalties, but they do not guarantee a needed grid upgrade finishes before a project's tax clock runs out.

Only 33% of utility executives call asset management advanced, IFS survey finds

Only 33% of utility executives call asset management advanced, IFS survey finds

Fifty-seven percent of utility executives call AI critical to cutting costs. Only 33% rate their asset lifecycle management as advanced, and 49% report operational data silos.

  • 01Fifty-seven percent of utility executives call AI critical to cutting costs, but only 33% rate the asset management that AI would run on as advanced.
  • 02Half of executives say asset management runs in silos with limited predictive capability, suggesting early AI spend may go to data integration before models.
  • 03Pew says grid modernization capex is pressuring rates; it also says using DERs via virtual power plants could serve peak demand at 40%–60% of traditional costs and help defer or avoid some infrastructure upgrades.
