In my house at least I have a UV light in my central HVAC that is supposed to be replaced every five years. Maybe it is different for commercial buildings, but commercial buildings also tend to have professional maintenance.

You need UV-C for sterilization and there are no LEDs emitting that.

This is no longer true. Vishay and Nichia[1] for example, produce leds in the UVC range.
