NOTICE:
Pre-treatment:
Water quality is extremely important for the optimum performance of your UV system. The following levels are recommended :
- Iron < 0.3 ppm (0.3 mg/L)
- Hardness< 7 gpg (120 mg/L)
- Turbidity < 1 NTU
- Manganese < 0.05 ppm (0.05 mg/L)
- Tannins < 0.1 ppm (0.1 mg/L)
- UV Transmittance> 75%
Hot Water Warning
The water in the chamber of this equipment can be very hot (Approx 140F) during an extended 4 hours of no water flowing. It's recommended to open the faucet until the hot water has been purged from the chamber. Keep human body away from the faucet during this time. Or install a 5 gallons water tank after the UV unit to reduce the temporary hot water.
Maintenance
- UV lamp: Replace the UV lamp annually (or biennially if seasonal home use) to ensure maximum disinfection.
- Quartz Sleeve: Clean the quartz sleeve every 6-12 months, replace every 24 months. The coating on the quartz sleeve will slowly form due to the minerals in the water. This coating must be removed because it reduces the amount of UV light reaching the water, thereby reducing disinfection performance. If the sleeve can not be cleaned, it must be replaced.
- Please search " B06XG19Q2Y" for the replacement quartz sleeve and " B01MZ3WBPO" for the UV bulb.
