 Sterilight® point-of-entry disinfection systems are specifically designed to treat microbiologically contaminated ground or surface waters.
These disinfection systems offer a 4-log reduction (99.99%) in bacteria, virus and protozoan cysts (specifically Giardia Lamblia and Cryptosporidium).
The Sterilight® process is quick, simple, inexpensive and environmentally friendly as it does not add anything to your water and creates no disinfection by-products. Sterilight is the most ecological way of treating your water... and all this just for pennies a day!
Applications include whole house installation for private wells and municipal water.

It is strongly recommended for maximum efficiency of your UV Sterilization that you pre-filter your water with a 5 µ sediment cartridge.
Do not connect plastic pipe or tubing directly to UV system because the UV light will break down plastic over time. The best way to make the connection is with Dielectric Unions that allow for a connection from stainless steel to copper that will not corrode. We have dielectric unions available in ½", ¾" & 1" sizes.
