UV
Water Purifier
|
Ultraviolet water purification is an EPA approved technology and can help protect your family against waterborne disease.
There are a number of factors that combine to make ultraviolet radiation an excellent means to purify water.
Ultraviolet radiation kills microbes by delivering concentrated amounts of ultra violet rays to reproductive mechanism of the microbe. As water passes through an ultra violet chamber, the water is disinfected instantly.
How is UV different from chlorine in disinfecting water?
Chlorine reacts with naturally-occurring organic matter in water and forms chloroform, which is a carcinogen. Not to mention, chlorine leaves behind a foul taste and smell to water.
Ultra violet water purifiers leave behind only clean, fresh tasting and smelling water and they do this without chemicals.
Types of UV Water Purifiers
There are two types of ultraviolet home water purifiers available on the market to the homeowner.One is a whole home system which installs on your main water line (point-of-entry). The other type treats water at a single faucet (point-of-use).
Benefits of this type of water purifier include germ-free potable water for your home and flavor-free water. The homeowner simply replaces the bulb once a year for optimal performance.
For those who love to hike and camp in remote areas, the SteriPEN™ is an excellent portable UV water purifier.
