An apparatus and methodology for abating fungi in a building (1) supported on a ground surface and having an upper enclosed living space (12) and a lower enclosed space (16) beneath the upper enclosed space (12) and proximate or beneath the ground. The apparatus includes a blower (20) positioned in the lower enclosed space (16) and having an air inlet and an air exhaust; a plurality of intake conduits (22, 24, 26, 28) having inlet ends adapted to open in the lower enclosed space (16) proximate a lower boundary of that space and outlet ends connected to the inlet of the blower; a plurality of exhaust conduits (30, 32) having inlet ends connected to the exhaust of the blower (20) and outlet ends discharging into the lower enclosed space (16); a plurality of ultraviolet lamps (34, 36, 38, 40) establishing germicidal killing zones intercepting and cleansing air moving from the lower enclosed space (16) to the inlet of the blower (20); and a condenser positioned between the outlet ends of the intake conduits and the blower inlet, forming a part of a refrigerant loop, and serving to dehumidify the air moving from the outlet ends of the intake conduits to the inlet of the blower(20).
