Anyone have one of these? I'm interested in getting one, or even just making my own.
Basically what it is, is a short wave UV light mounted inside your main HVAC duct (generally right outside of your furnace). The short wave UV light basically kills bacteria, mold, spores, etc. in your air as it passes through the light.
I've heard it helps reduce sickness and allergies but I'm looking for some personal experiences. Anyone got any?
Yes i have some and my wife does seem less Moldy and less sick.
I am glad to hear that your wife does at least seem "less moldy" - LOL!!!

This sounds really great..never heard of it. How would you even make your own?

I've considering doing this. All you need is a UV light source shining in a space in the main duct of your heating & air conditioning system. There will be questions along the lines of: is the light source intense enough and does the air pass through the illuminated volume slowly enough to be effective, I don't know the details of how to figure that out. But UV light sources are easy to come by, a fluorescent lamp without the phosphor on the inside of the glass is just that, and UV LEDs are fairly common too. So it could be as simple as adding a light fixture inside the main HVAC duct somewhere convenient and running power to it, put a UV bulb in the fixture and turn it on.
