Benefits of using UV disinfection systems

• Ultraviolet (UV-C rays/253.7nm) water disinfection systems are a unique and rapid method of water disinfection without the use of heat or chemicals to effectively destroy bacteria, virus, mould, and algae.
• Ultraviolet (UV) light treatment is a widely recognised and proven method of disinfection of water and has several advantages over other disinfection methods such as chlorination, ozonisation etc.
• UV light does not add anything to the water, such as undesirable colour, odour, taste or flavour, nor does it generate harmful byproducts. It adds only energy in the form of ultraviolet radiation. Also, UV disinfection requires only a fraction of the contact times required by other disinfection methods.
• It is a fast, effective, economical and environmentally friendly.
