UV Water Purifier Systems

The Unique Benefits of Ultraviolet Water Treatment

Installing a UV water purifier or ultraviolet water filter in your home ensures that the water you drink, cook with, and bathe with is as safe and clean as possible. Ultraviolet systems are easy-to-maintain and can destroy 99.99% of harmful microorganisms and bacteria without adding chemicals to the water.

How Do UV Water Purifiers Work?

A UV water purifier utilizes special bulbs or lights that radiate ultraviolet rays—the same type of invisible energy that causes sunburns—to penetrate pathogens in the water and destroy illness-causing microorganisms by rendering them unable to reproduce. UV water purifiers are among the most effective on the market, and are sometimes used as part of a process that also involves reverse osmosis or the application of a carbon block filter to keep unpleasant odors or tastes from contaminating the water.

The benefits of using an ultraviolet water purifier are many. These systems are:

• Low maintenance and easy to use
• Energy efficient, using approximately the same amount of energy as a 60-watt light bulb
• Completely natural and free of chemicals
• Cost effective
