Transform Your Tap Water With a UV Filter Water Purifier

Blog

The journey of water from the source to your tap is a long and winding one. Along the way, it can pick up all sorts of contaminants and pollutants that can affect its taste, smell, and even quality.

But what if you could take control of that journey and make sure that the water you and your family drink is clean, fresh, and healthy?

A UV filter water purifier completely revolutionizes how we purify our water, offering a
simple yet effective solution to common tap water woes.

Why Tap Water Quality Matters

You might wonder, “Is my tap water really that bad?” Well, it’s not about being ‘bad’ per se, but about being the best it can be. Tap water often contains a mix of unwanted nasties:

  • Bacteria and viruses.
  • Chlorine and chloramine (used for disinfection).
  • Heavy metals.
  • Pesticides and herbicides.

While water treatment facilities make water safe to drink, they often rely on chemicals like chlorine and chloramine. These can leave your water tasting and smelling like a swimming pool.

These contaminants aren’t just about taste. They can also pose health risks. Long-term exposure to chlorine and chloramine can dry out your skin and hair, leaving them feeling itchy and brittle. 

Many people find that their skin feels tight or irritated after showering in chlorinated water. Some even experience exacerbation of conditions like eczema or psoriasis.

As for bacteria and viruses, they’re notorious troublemakers for your digestive system. They can cause a range of gut issues, from mild discomfort to more serious conditions. 

These microorganisms can be particularly problematic for people with sensitive stomachs or weakened immune systems.

How UV Filter Water Purifiers Work

Now, let’s shine a light on UV filter water purifiers! These clever devices use ultraviolet light to zap harmful microorganisms in your water. Here’s how it works:

  • Water flows into the UV chamber.
  • Powerful UV-C light penetrates the cell walls of microorganisms in the water.
  • This light scrambles their DNA, preventing them from reproducing.
  • The result? Harmless, inactive microbes that can’t make you sick.

But what about chlorine and chloramine? Many UV systems, like those offered by UV Guard, combine UV technology with activated carbon filtration. This dynamic duo kills germs and removes chlorine, chloramine, and other chemicals, leaving you with clean, fresh-tasting water.

So, is UV treated water safe to drink? Compared to other purification methods, a UV water purifier stands out. It doesn’t use chemicals, doesn’t alter the taste of your water, and doesn’t waste water like reverse osmosis systems can. It’s quick, safe, efficient, and incredibly effective!

Benefits of UV Filter Water Purifiers

Switching to a UV filter water purifier can transform your tap water experience. Here’s what you can look forward to:

  1. Tasty, odour-free water. Say goodbye to that swimming pool smell and hello to crisp, refreshing water.
  2. Health boost. By removing harmful contaminants, you’re giving your body the clean water it deserves.
  3. Eco-friendly purification. No chemicals mean no harm to the environment. It’s a win-win!
  4. Cost-effective. While there’s an initial investment, you’ll save money in the long run compared to buying bottled water.

But don’t just take our word for it. Here’s what some of our customers have to say:

  • “We use UV Guard’s S-Series on our warm water systems, commonly installed in locations that house residents with lowered immune systems. The UV Disinfection Systems act as a barrier against Legionella – inactivating the bacteria to minimise Legionnaires disease being contracted. We find these systems easy to install, and UV Guard’s pre and post-sale support is second to none.” – Daniel Dillenbeck.
  • “I would recommend UV-Guard as a supplier of quality, dependable UV equipment with excellent backup service and support. The UV Guard equipment is an integral part of our Quality Management System and HACCP program to ensure a safe, quality product is continuously produced in our bottling plants.” – Bruce Taylor, Nu-Pure Beverages.

UV Guard’s Innovative Systems

UV Guard’s CWP-Series is a game-changer in rainwater purification. It blends multiple technologies to overcome the limitations of individual methods.

  • Australian certified: It’s not just good; it’s officially good. The CWP-Series meets the tough Australian WaterMark standards for safety and quality.
  • Triple-threat purification: This system doesn’t just stop at one method. It combines sediment filtration, adsorption, and UV disinfection for a comprehensive clean.
  • Germ destroyer: Say goodbye to 99.99% of nasty pathogens. The CWP-Series tackles harmful bacteria and viruses, including E. Coli, Cryptosporidium, and Giardia.
  • Tastier water: It doesn’t just make your water safe; it makes it taste the best. Removing sediment, chlorine, and other impurities improves taste, colour, and odour.
  • Built to last: With a corrosion-resistant stainless steel bracket and a lockable cover, this system is as tough as it is effective.
  • Next-level filtration: The premium twin filter housings include a pleated, washable filter and a silver-impregnated carbon block filter for top-notch purification.
  • High-tech heart: At its core is a 316L stainless steel UV reactor, complete with a lamp operation viewport and digital controller for peak performance.
  • Easy setup: It arrives ready to go and is pre-assembled for a straightforward “plug & play” installation.

Let’s break down how the CWP-Series does all this.

  1. Sediment filtration: First, the high-capacity sediment filter catches larger particles like dirt and rust, protecting your plumbing and setting the stage for further purification.
  2. Adsorption: Next up is the silver-impregnated carbon block filter. This multitasker adsorbs chlorine, chemicals, and odours, making your water taste great. The silver impregnation is a clever touch, preventing bacterial growth within the filter itself.
  3. UV disinfection: The grand finale. In the high-tech UV reactor, powerful ultraviolet light zaps 99.99% of harmful microorganisms. This chemical-free process ensures your water is safe for all household uses, from drinking to showering.

However, UV Guard’s commitment to quality doesn’t stop at the initial installation. We strongly advocate for the use of high-quality replacement parts to maintain optimal performance.

Our systems are designed to be compatible with other reputable brands, such as Trojan, Aquafides, Van Remmen, and many others.

This compatibility and availability of replacement parts mean you’re never left in the lurch when it comes to maintenance. Whether using a UV Guard system or another brand, you can count on UV Guard to help keep your water purifier performing at its best. 

This forward-thinking approach sets UV Guard apart in the water purification industry. It ensures that you always have access to safe, clean water, regardless of your system’s brand.
