UV-C light technology is renowned for its capability to eradicate molds, bacteria, yeast, viruses, and protozoa. This water treatment method eliminates the need for chemical handling and specialized storage, leaving no alteration in water's odor, taste, chemistry, or pH. Compared to chemical treatment, many favor this approach due to its absence of byproducts. Operating at a wavelength of 253.7 nm, the UV light is designed to neutralize harmful microorganisms like E.coli, giardia, and cryptosporidium. During UV water purification, the rays pass through the water, modifying the genetic composition of microorganisms, rendering them harmless.CureUV recommends that you replace the UV bulb annually for better efficiency and protection. Ensure utmost safety when you replace with the Aquafine 17998LM Replacement UVC Light Bulb.

This bulb is available with a shatterproof coating that in case of damage keeps the lamp glass from falling into the unit where is installed. This results in an easy way to dispose of glass if it shatters. You can select this shatterproof option above.

Do I need shatterproof coating?

Although shatterproof coating can lower the intensity of the UV-C bulb by as much as 15%, it is recommended for applications in which it is crucial to avoid potential glass breakage at all costs. These applications include but are not limited to food processing and medical institutions. However, if glass breakage would be inconvenient but not catastrophic, skipping the costly shatterproof coating is quite alright. After all, we do not use shatterproof coating with our glasses and plates at home.

The UV lamp starts instantly and makes use of a coil filament that operates hot. The UV lamp is managed by the life of electrodes and works well for the following applications that require UVC intensity:
