uv treatment

UV water treatment (Ultraviolet water purification) is a chemical-free process that uses ultraviolet light to disinfect water by killing or inactivating microorganisms like: 

  • Bacteria (e.g. E. coli) 
  • Viruses (e.g. norovirus, hepatitis)
  • Protozoa (e.g. Giardia, Cryptosporidium)

UV systems are often used in homes abusines

How it works

  1. Water flows through a chamber containing a UV light bulb (usually encased in a quarts glass).
  2. As the water passes by the UV light, the UV-C rays penetrate the cells of microorganisms.
  3. The UV light damages their DNA, preventing them from reproducing or causing infection.
  4. The result is disinfected water-free of living pathogens

Benefites of uv water treatment

Effective Disinfection

  • Kills 99.99% of harmful pathogens without altering water's taste, color, or smell.
  • Effective against chlorine-resistant microbes like Cryptosporidium and Giardia.

Chemical-Free

  • No chlorine or other disinfectants needed - no chemical by-products (like trihalomethanes).

Environmentally Friendly

  • No chemical storage or handling.
  • Low energy consumption (about the same as a light bulb).

Low Maintenance

  • Simple design with minimal moving parts.
  • Only requires annual bulb replacement and periodic cleaning of the quartz sleeve.

Immediate Treatment

  • Instant disinfection as water flows through no contact time or holding tank required.

Safe for All Water Uses

Ideal for:

  • Homes with private wells
  • Remote cabins or off-grid systems
  • Food and beverage production
  • Aquariums and ponds
  • Hospitals and labs

Important notes

  • Pre-filtration is often required. UV systems work best with clear water (low turbidity), as particles can shield microbes from UV light.
  • Doesn't remove chemicals, metals, or sediment.
  • Needs electricity to function.
