HOW DOES UV DISINFECTION WORK?
Ultraviolet light cannot be seen because its wavelengths are shorter than visible light and carry
more energy; sufficient to kill microorganisms. As water passes through the UV unit (which can
be used to treat one faucet or the entire house), the UV light shines through the water, eliminates
the microorganisms and the water exits 99.9% safe.
Maintenance is simple: change the lamp and clean the quartz sleeve once per year.
PurTest® ultraviolet units are designed for simple, cost effective bacteria treatment. Sizes are
available depending on water volume demand in your home. PurTest® stainless steel units run
on regular household electrical current and have a full 10-year warranty on the disinfection
chamber.
