What Does a UV Water Treatment System Do?
Signs You May Need UV Water Treatment
- You rely on a private well in Ajax.
- Your water has tested positive for coliform or E. coli.
- You want a chemical-free way to treat your drinking water.
- You’ve had water quality issues in the past or live in a rural area.
Even if your water looks clear, UV light treatment adds a reliable barrier against invisible threats like bacteria or viruses. It’s especially helpful for families with infants, elderly residents, or anyone with a weakened immune system.
Benefits of UV Water Filtration
- Effective Disinfection: Neutralizes 99.99% of bacteria, viruses, and parasites—no chlorine needed.
- Low Maintenance: Just change the lamp once a year—no chemicals, no filters to replace constantly.
- No Taste or Odour: Because it doesn’t add anything to your water, taste stays clean and unchanged.
- Eco-Friendly: No waste, no byproducts—just safe, efficient protection.
- Fast & Continuous: Systems treat water in real-time with no storage tanks or lag.
Our UV Light Filter Installation Process
- Site Assessment: We check your plumbing setup and test your water to confirm if UV treatment is the right fit.
- System Sizing: We recommend a system based on your water usage and flow rate—typically 10 or 15 gallons per minute for residential use.
- Clean Installation: Our licensed technicians install the UV unit inline with your existing plumbing—usually right after your pressure tank or main line.
- Testing & Instruction: Once installed, we test the system and show you how to monitor the lamp and when to schedule annual service.
Maintenance and Support
UV systems are low-maintenance, but not zero-maintenance. The UV lamp should be replaced annually, and the quartz sleeve around the bulb should be cleaned or replaced if buildup occurs. MT Treatment offers maintenance plans and reminders to keep your system working without you needing to worry.
