Water Sterilization

Chlorination systems should be installed near your well. These types of systems are also known as chemical feed systems. They require chlorine so storage of the extra chlorine and the storage tank should be thought of before installing this type of home water sterilization system.

​

Ultraviolet systems need to be installed after all other Water Purification systems. This is because the UV light will have a hard time penetrating through the water if something else is blocking the rays from contacting the microorganism.

Chlorination systems use chlorine to treat well water. The only maintenance you need to perform on these types of systems is just adding more chlorine when the tank is getting low.

​

Ultraviolet systems use a UV lamp to sterilize the water. Unlike regular light bulbs, UV Lamps do not burn out – they solarize. This means that over time they reduce in their light wave intensity to about 60% of what a new UV lamp provides. This point is reached usually after one year, or 9000 hours, of continuous use. After a year of use it is recommended for you to replace the lamp.

​

Water running through a UV system often carries minerals, sediment, and other debris. These contaminants will eventually build up on the UV quartz sleeve that protects the UV lamp. The UV sleeve needs cleaning and replacement every two years.
