UV Sterilisation
UV Sterilisation uses a high intensity bulb that emits light in the UV spectrum (approx. 300nm) to to deactivate a wide range of microorganisms. It is a robust and proven sterilisation method.
​
In certain mains water and domestic well water supplies microorganisms are present and can have a negative health impact.
​
The most well known in Ireland is cryptosporidium.
​
A UV unit sterilises the water deactivating the microorganisms. For well water applications we have 3 options that depend on water throughput.

​
Where should I install it?
Most well water systems are outside in a plant room or well house.
How often do the filters need changing?
This really depends on usage, for a typical household changing the particle cartridge every 6-12 months is recommended.
​
For solutions with resin this typically lasts 5 years.
For solutions that consume salt this entirely depends on consumption but a bag a month would be typical.
