REKO Lighting R2000 Air Purifier UV C Light Duct for HVAC

Description

Product Overview

The REKO Lighting R2000 UV C air purifier is a purpose‑built solution for integrating ultraviolet germicidal irradiation directly into HVAC duct systems. Constructed from high‑impact ABS housing and stainless‑steel internal brackets, the unit is engineered to withstand the temperature fluctuations and vibration typical of forced‑air environments. The core component is a European‑manufactured UV‑C bulb that emits a precise 253.7 nm wavelength, the optimal range for deactivating bacteria, viruses, mold spores, and allergens as air passes through the duct. With dimensions of 9 × 8 × 8 inches and a lightweight 1.5 lb profile, the purifier can be mounted in standard duct sections without requiring additional structural reinforcement. Power is supplied via a 120 V plug and a 9 ft cord, allowing flexible placement and easy connection to existing electrical circuits. The unit operates silently, drawing minimal power while maintaining a constant flow of purified air throughout the entire building. Designed for durability, the UV‑C bulbs have a rated lifespan of 9,000 hours, and the housing includes a sealed gasket to prevent dust ingress, ensuring long‑term reliability and consistent performance.

Usage

Installation of the R2000 is straightforward for qualified HVAC technicians or experienced DIY homeowners. The purifier is intended for placement in the supply or return duct of central air‑conditioning systems, making it suitable for single‑family homes, multi‑unit apartments, office buildings, schools, and small commercial facilities. Once installed, the UV‑C light continuously treats the air stream, reducing microbial load and improving indoor air quality without the need for frequent filter changes. The system is especially beneficial in humid climates where mold growth is a concern, as the UV‑C radiation inhibits spore formation at the source. Because the unit operates at a low voltage and does not interfere with existing duct insulation, it can be added to both new construction and retrofit projects. Users can expect a noticeable reduction in odors, dust accumulation, and allergy symptoms after a few days of operation, making the R2000 an effective complement to conventional filtration methods. Routine maintenance involves checking the bulb’s operating hours and replacing it at the manufacturer‑recommended interval to sustain optimal germicidal efficacy.

FAQ

How does the UV‑C light improve indoor air quality?

The UV‑C lamp emits light at 253.7 nm, a wavelength that disrupts the DNA of microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, mold spores, and allergens. As air passes through the illuminated section of the duct, these contaminants are inactivated, reducing the overall microbial load and helping to prevent the growth of mold and the spread of airborne illnesses.

Can the R2000 be installed in any HVAC system?

The unit is designed for standard rectangular ductwork commonly found in residential and light commercial HVAC systems. It can be mounted in either the supply or return side of the duct, provided there is sufficient clearance for the 9 × 8 × 8 inches housing. For unusually sized or non‑standard ducts, a qualified technician can assess compatibility and recommend any necessary adjustments.

What maintenance is required for the UV‑C bulb?

The UV‑C bulb has an estimated operational life of 9,000 hours. REKO recommends checking the bulb’s runtime after each year of continuous use and replacing it when the rated lifespan is reached to maintain optimal germicidal effectiveness. Replacement bulbs are sold separately and can be installed without removing the entire unit, following the safety interlock procedure.

Is the UV‑C light safe for occupants?

Yes. The UV‑C light is enclosed within a sealed housing that prevents any direct exposure to occupants. The unit also includes a safety interlock that automatically shuts off the lamp if the housing is opened, ensuring that the UV radiation remains contained within the ductwork at all times.

Will the purifier affect my HVAC system’s airflow?

The R2000 is engineered with a low‑profile design and smooth interior surfaces to minimize airflow resistance. In most installations, the impact on system pressure is negligible, and the HVAC fan will continue to operate at its normal capacity. If a significant pressure drop is observed, a professional can evaluate the duct layout and recommend any necessary adjustments.
