I am adding a UV light to my furnace coils. I decided to cut an access panel for easier cleaning and access to the UV light. I did not realize there were these triangular end covers for the A-frame of the furnace evaporator coils.
I don’t see them anywhere online when looking up diagrams of furnace coils. When I search online, it is also not clear if these covers are necessary. Are these covers beneficial? Or can I take one side off to fit the UV light underneath the A-frame?
If your intent is to sterilize the coils so that they can’t grow anything funky, then yes, probably that would be for the best.
Also, you could certainly test it by setting it to turn on when the furnace is on so you can see how stinky the ozone is. If it smells kind of strong, then that’s probably too much, right?
