Why Choose a UV Water Filter?
- Eliminates bacteria and viruses without chemicals
- Maintains natural taste and mineral content
- Treats water instantly as it flows through the system
- Ideal for private wells and rural properties
- Protects your entire home (drinking, bathing, cooking)
Whole House Protection from Bacteria
The 6GPM UV system is installed on your main water line, providing complete disinfection for your entire property.
It is ideal for:
- Homes using well water
- Properties with bacterial contamination risks
- Rural homes, farms, and holiday properties
- Anyone seeking a reliable, low-maintenance disinfection solution
For best results, UV systems are typically paired with pre-filtration to remove sediment and ensure maximum UV effectiveness.
High Performance & Reliable Operation
- Flow Rate: 6 GPM (≈ 22–23 L/min)
- Removes up to 99.99% of bacteria & viruses
- Durable stainless steel chamber
- Energy-efficient operation (runs continuously)
- Compact, inline design for easy installation
- Built-in ballast with status indicator (model dependent)
Installation & Placement
- Installed at point-of-entry (where water enters your home)
- Suitable for mains or well water systems
- Typically fitted in plant rooms, utility areas, or pump houses
- Should be installed after filtration systems for best performance
Professional installation ensures optimal flow rate, correct UV dosage, and long-term reliability.
Maintenance & Replacement
To keep your UV system operating effectively, simple annual maintenance is required:
Annual Maintenance (Every 12 Months)
- Replace UV lamp (even if still glowing, intensity reduces over time)
- Inspect and clean quartz sleeve to remove any build-up
Every 6–12 Months (Depending on Water Quality)
- Replace pre-filters (if installed alongside the system)
- Check for sediment or iron build-up that may reduce UV performance
