What is Ultraviolet (UV) disinfection?
UV disinfection is becoming more popular and economical than ever before. UV light is a point-of-contact disinfection system that is highly effective in the inactivation of protozoa and does not require the addition of any chemicals. It does this without altering the chemistry, taste, and quality of the water. Turbidity, however, does affect the quality of disinfection because of what is known as the shadowing effect. Like ozone, UV has no residual disinfection capacity. In some instances, we implement UV disinfection.
