Whole-Home Air Purifier for Australian Ducted Systems
Revolutionary indoor air quality technology. Now with LED status indicator and A2L refrigerant compatibility.
Reduce indoor air pollution, eliminate musty odours, kill mould before it spreads, and extend the life of your ducted air conditioning — all from one compact unit installed inside your HVAC system.
Does Your Home Have Any of These Problems?
If any of these sound familiar, your ducted air conditioning is almost certainly part of the problem:
- A musty, damp or “old air” smell when the air conditioner first kicks on
- A family member with asthma, hay fever or allergies that get worse indoors
- Visible mould forming around vents, on ceilings or near the AC unit
- Pet odours, cooking smells or VOCs (paint, cleaning products) that linger
- Excessive dust on surfaces despite regular cleaning
- HVAC system that needs frequent coil cleaning or seems less efficient than it used to be
The Australian climate — hot, humid summers and damp winters — creates ideal conditions for mould, bacteria and biofilm to grow inside your HVAC ductwork and on the cooling coils. Once it’s there, it gets circulated through every room every time the system runs.
What APCO-X ULTRA Does About It
APCO-X ULTRA is a whole-home air and coil treatment system that installs directly into your ducted air conditioning. It uses two scientifically proven technologies working together: UV-C light at the 254nm germicidal wavelength and EverCarbon™ activated carbon cells.
As air passes through your HVAC system, the APCO-X ULTRA:
- Sterilises mould, bacteria and viruses on the cooling coil and in the air stream
- Neutralises odour-causing VOCs from cooking, pets, cleaning products and building materials
- Keeps coils and drain pans free of biofilm — improving system efficiency and lifespan
- Produces zero ozone (UL 2998 validated) — completely safe for family homes
- Requires almost no maintenance — just a UV-C lamp replacement every 3 years
Features & Benefits
New: LED Status Indicator — Know Exactly When to Service
The APCO-X ULTRA is the first APCO unit with a built-in LED indicator that tells you the health of your lamp at a glance. No service schedules to remember, no opening up the unit to check — just look at the light.
Safely Treat the Other Two-Thirds of Indoor Air Pollution
Conventional air filters — even high-MERV filters — only catch particulates like dust, pollen and skin flakes. That’s roughly one-third of what’s in your indoor air.
The other two-thirds are biological contaminants (mould spores, bacteria, viruses) and chemical contaminants (VOCs from paint, cleaning products, new furniture, cooking, off-gassing). Filters can’t catch these — but APCO-X ULTRA can.
Together with your existing filter, APCO-X ULTRA addresses 99+% of contaminants in your indoor air.
Contaminant proportions are based on Fresh-Aire UV APCO technical data and U.S. EPA indoor air quality guidance. Actual reduction depends on your existing filtration and system configuration.
Cleaner Coils, Lower Power Bills, Longer HVAC Life
A dirty coil is the most expensive problem in your air conditioning system — but most homeowners never see it. Biofilm and mould build up gradually on the cooling coils, restricting airflow, reducing heat transfer, and forcing your AC to work harder to deliver the same comfort. The result: higher power bills, more breakdowns, and a shorter system life.
Before (left) and after (right) APCO-X UV-C treatment
APCO-X ULTRA’s UV-C light continuously bathes the coil with germicidal radiation, killing mould and bacteria on contact and preventing biofilm from forming in the first place.
Customers typically see improved cooling performance, reduced cleaning needs, and noticeably lower energy bills after installation.
How APCO-X ULTRA Works
This short video shows how APCO-X combines UV-C light and EverCarbon™ technology to deliver clean air throughout the entire home.
Safe & Effective UV-C Light
Non-ozone-producing UV-C light at the precise 254nm germicidal wavelength sterilises the air, keeps coils clean, and extends the life of your HVAC system. Sealed inside the ductwork — never visible, never harmful to occupants.
EverCarbon™ Technology
A lifetime activated carbon matrix with antimicrobial finish captures odour-causing VOCs. When energised by UV-C light, it transforms those contaminants into harmless water vapour and CO₂ — leaving the carbon cells clean so they never need replacing.
Independently Validated. Backed for Life.
✓ Scientifically Validated
APCO technology is tested and validated by major independent organisations including UL Environment.
✓ Zero Harmful Byproducts
UL 2998 certified for zero ozone emissions. No ions, no plasma, no chemicals — just light and carbon.
✓ Lifetime Warranty
Lifetime product and performance guarantee on all parts (UV-C lamp is a 3-year consumable).

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does an APCO-X ULTRA cost installed in Australia?
Pricing varies by installer and the complexity of your existing ducted system, but the supplied unit cost is consistent. For an accurate installed quote, contact one of our authorised resellers above. Most homeowners find the unit pays for itself in reduced HVAC maintenance, lower running costs, and longer equipment life — often within 3-5 years.
Will APCO-X ULTRA work with my existing ducted air conditioner?
Yes — APCO-X ULTRA is designed to retrofit into virtually any residential ducted HVAC system, including up-flow, down-flow and horizontal configurations. It’s also fully compatible with modern A2L refrigerant systems being rolled out across Australia.
Is UV-C light safe for my family?
Absolutely. The UV-C lamp is sealed inside the metal ductwork of your air conditioning system, where no occupant can be exposed to it. APCO-X ULTRA is also UL 2998 validated for zero ozone emissions — meaning it produces no harmful byproducts at all. UV-C has been used safely in hospitals for over 50 years.
How is this different from a portable air purifier?
Portable purifiers only treat the room they’re in. APCO-X ULTRA treats every room your air conditioning reaches — every time the system runs. It also tackles HVAC-specific problems (coil mould, biofilm, duct contamination) that portables can’t address, and there are no filters to replace.
How often does the UV-C lamp need replacing?
Every 3 years. The new LED status indicator on the APCO-X ULTRA will tell you exactly when — no need to remember service dates. Lamp replacement is a quick job your installer can perform during a routine HVAC service.
Will this help with asthma, allergies or hay fever?
Many of our customers report significant improvement in respiratory symptoms after installation, particularly where mould or VOCs were contributing factors. We can’t make medical claims, but reducing biological and chemical contaminants from the air you breathe inside your home is a well-established benefit of UV-C and PCO technology. Always consult your doctor about respiratory conditions.
Can I install it myself?
No — APCO-X ULTRA installation requires cutting into your existing ductwork and wiring to a 24V transformer, which must be done by a qualified HVAC professional. This protects your warranty and ensures the unit performs correctly. Use one of our authorised resellers above.
