How Does a c and j Ultraviolet Light Work?

As bacteria in the water passes through the UV treatment system, the ultraviolet light disrupts its DNA, eliminating the ability to reproduce. If it can’t reproduce, it can’t replicate, ensuring it can’t infect what it comes into contact with. UV light water purification systems are simple but very effective. Ultraviolet light systems also have many benefits that other purification applications don’t. They are reliable, do not waste any water, and have relatively low maintenance. Also, UV light disinfection is approved by the EPA because it is chemical-free and doesn’t create any harmful byproducts. The c and j UV Light system comes with a 10-year limited warranty on the controller and stainless steel vessel. The UV lamp (bulb) and sleeve come with a 1-year limited warranty.

What Are the Limitations to c and j UV Light?

Ultraviolet purification itself is not enough to purify water down for drinking water purposes. This is because UV radiation is only effective for treating bacteria and viruses. UV light does not work to eliminate contaminants such as chlorine, heavy metals, and VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds). UV systems should also be combined with water softeners and reverse osmosis systems to provide a complete purification process for the safest drinking water. Any hardness or iron can foul up the sleeve and reduce, or eliminate the effectiveness of the UV bulb. c and j doesn’t warranty UV light systems that are not paired with properly functioning softeners.
