Ultraviolet Light
Is your drinking water safe?
envirowater TECHNOLOGIES incorporates modern technology to solve a problem that's been around for ages. Bacteriological contamination can be present in all water supplies, especially rural areas or areas which are not treated with municipal water systems. It is recommended that no surface waters be consumed without adequate microbiological treatment, regardless of how the water is tested. envirowater TECHNOLOGIES UV Disinfection Systems protect you from harmful bacteria transferred through water.
Unlike traditional disinfection methods (i.e. Chlorination), UV imparts no residual chemicals into your drinking water. The most effective bacteria removal process available today is to use ultraviolet light (UV) disinfection to clean your water. In addition to bacteria removal - (E.coli), virus, algae, mold and others - the excalibur UV systems are effective against protozoa such as Cryptosporidium and Giardia Lamblia. UV effectively destroys these harmful elements. It is a proven fact that UV rays destroy the carcinogenic micro-organisms in water in seconds, which prevents these harmful elements from further multiplying. The result is the most simple, cost effective way of treating your water!
NSF Approved Units Available - System Tested and Certified by NSF International against NSF/ANSI Standard 55 for Disinfection Performance Class A.

How does uv work?
Ultraviolet water sterilizers incorporate natural UV light energy to eradicate microbiological contamination. Water enters through the bottom port of the ultraviolet reactor chamber and swirls around a low pressure mercury vapour lamp thermally protected by a quartz sleeve. The UV lamp emits powerful ultraviolet light energy at a wavelength of 253.7nm. Vital genetic components contained in microorganisms absorb the light energy; this disrupts the DNA and prevents reproduction. Treated water then exits through the top port of the generator cell and is ready for consumption.
We carry water treatment models for treating water at your kitchen sink or for your entire home - solutions for all your water treatment needs.
