Clean coils
A twist-lock UVC emitter designed for side-access installations allows up to six units to be connected to slide into an air handler to destroy microbes with ultraviolet light. The unit's high output in moving and cold air prevents microbial growth and destroys microorganisms using ultraviolet light in the C range.

All in the wrapping
A resilient blanket-type insulation for ductwork is composed of glass fibers bonded with a thermosetting resin to control heat loss and condensation. Faced Duct Wrap Insulation allows ductwork to handle conditioned air from 35 F to 250 F while the unfaced version can handle up to 350 F. Available with foil scrim kraft or vinyl film vapor retardant facing, it includes a 2-in.-wide stapling and taping tab on one edge.
