How Does UV Water Treatment Work?

UV water treatment is a proven, chemical-free method for ensuring water purity by eliminating harmful microorganisms. UV water treatment systems are extremely energy-efficient and economical - a typical UV system use about the same amount of energy as a 40-watt light bulb! But what does UV water treatment do? Here’s how the process operates:

  • UV Light Exposure: The core of UV water treatment systems is the UV lamp, which emits ultraviolet light. As water passes through the UV system, the light targets the DNA of microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses and protozoa, rendering them inactive and harmless.
  • Flow Rate Management: The effectiveness of UV light water treatment is significantly influenced by the flow rate of water through the system. Our UV systems are designed to accommodate various flow rates, ensuring optimum exposure time for water treatment.
  • Sediment Pre-filtration: To enhance the efficiency of UV treatment of water, sediment pre-filtration is recommended. This process removes any particles that may shield microorganisms from UV light, ensuring a more effective UV treatment of water.
  • UV Light Intensity Monitoring: The intensity of the UV lamp is a critical aspect of effective water treatment. UV Intensity Monitors in our UV water treatment systems provide real-time data, enabling timely maintenance and assurance of system efficacy.
  • Lamp Replacement: Over time, the intensity of UV lights for water treatment may diminish. Regular lamp replacement is essential to maintain the desired level of water purification.

Installation Guide for UV Light Water Treatment Systems

Installing UV water treatment systems is easy but requires careful attention to ensure effective water purification. Here's a step-by-step guide for how to install a UV light for water treatment:

UV water treatment systems
  1. Select the Installation Site: Choose a location that allows easy access for maintenance, and ensure it's close to the water supply and an electrical outlet.
  2. Prepare the Area: Clear the area, ensuring it's clean and free from debris.
  3. Install Pre-Filtration: Install a sediment pre-filter to remove particles that could hinder UV light penetration.
  4. Position the UV Water Filtration System: Mount the UV system securely, ensuring that it is level.
  5. Connect Water Lines: Attach the inlet and outlet water lines to the UV water treatment system.
  6. Install the UV Lamp: Insert the lamp into the UV water treatment system and secure it.
  7. Electrical Connections: Connect the UV system to a power source, following the manufacturer’s instructions.
  8. Test the System: Turn on the water and the UV system, checking for leaks and ensuring the UV light is functioning properly.

FAQs About UV Lights For Water Treatment

As a family-owned and operated business, we make customer satisfaction our top priority. Here are answers to some of our most common questions.

How Effective is UV Water Treatment?

UV treatment of water typically provides a 99.99% reduction for both bacteria and viruses, making UV water treatment systems more effective than chemical disinfection for a wide range of viruses.

What is UV Light Used For in Water Treatment?

UV lights for water treatment are used to immobilize harmful microorganisms found in water. The light targets and alters the DNA of these microorganisms, which stops them from being able to function or reproduce. UV light water treatment significantly improves the safety of the water, making it a reliable method to purify and secure your water supply from microbial threats.

Should I Shut Off My UV Light Water Treatment System When Not in Use?

We recommend keeping the UV light water treatment system on to prevent contamination from untreated water. However, during long periods of non-use or when draining the UV system, you can turn it off to save power and extend lamp life as long as shut-off valves are in place to prevent untreated water from passing through the UV water filter system during this time.

Do UV Lights For Water Treatment Treat E. Coli?

Yes, UV treatment of water is highly effective against E. coli, requiring a UV dose between 6 to 10 mJ/cm^2 to achieve 99.99% purification, which is well within the capabilities of Serv-A-Pure's UV water filtration systems.
