Stay Healthy By Installing Micro Organism Killing Technology

Curtis Butchart • Mar 19, 2020


When was the last time you thought about your home's air quality? The first time we may begin to think about it is when it shows up as a health issue. In this case, we are talking about micro organisms that cause diseases. In light of recent world events, Pioneer Plumbing is becoming a community leader in stopping the spread and reproduction of harmful pathogens in your environment.


We now have access to special systems that can safely kill viruses without the use of harsh chemicals and prevent them from recirculating in your home and business. This type of system is common in hospitals, but we have made this technology available to the public, which will be professionally and safely installed by our experienced technicians. We believe that by notifying our existing customers and reaching out to new people in our community of this service, we can take steps to control and fight the spread of infectious diseases. Being able to adapt rapidly changing situations ahead will be the cornerstone of our ability to protect our community, and allow us to replace fear with confidence in our actions. Due to the limited supply and expected high volume of inquires, we will be limiting our installations to 2 germicidal lights per person. 


The brand and model we use features maximum intensity UV light that damages the cell structure of micro organisms, that prevents them from reproducing and spreading in your home or business. The germicidal light effectively kills viruses, mold, bacteria, and yeast; while improving the overall air quality of your home. Unlike other systems, there are no ozone emissions or byproducts released, which is a known lung irritant. This system will last for many years and be an important part of maintaining your home's air quality in the future. Research suggests that pandemics will get more frequent and more deadly in the years to come; due to antibiotic resistant germs, rapid growth in population and increased connectivity between global communities. If we can, we want to take a lesson from how ill prepared most of us are when we are facing a crisis. We want to spread the message that we CAN adapt and evolve to our rapidly changing world and those that do will make it through all of life's challenges. Integrating a system like this in your home and business is a good first step in being ahead of the curve. For this specific technology, the purpose is to kill micro organisms that cause health problems. It is not a dust filter or temperature control system. This means you will also be less likely to get sick during cold and flu season. 


We at Pioneer Plumbing & Heating have integrated aggressive measures to do our part in protecting our customers, technicians, and company on regular service calls. We provide same day service. If you are interested in integrating a germicidal light in to your duct work, feel free to call us and let us answer any additional questions you may have. For a full installation, you can expect to it to be $875. We believe that improving the health of you and your loved ones is the most important investment you can make. You could have this system easily installed today by one of our experienced HVAC technicians.

The laundry room is one place where many people tend to overlook the importance of the water line connected to the washing machine. If you have never looked at that hose it’s a good idea to inspect it yourself to see what type of line is attached to your washing machine. One of the most common causes of a flood is a cracked water line flooding the laundry room when you are away. Coming home to a flood will ruin your day!
