Aquapro UV-C Steriliser 6 GPM 20 W stainless steel, complete kit - PR-UV-6GPM-H

Disinfection without chemicals

Water passes through a stainless steel chamber where a UV-C lamp exposes it to short-wavelength ultraviolet radiation. This radiation destroys the DNA of micro-organisms and renders them incapable of reproduction: bacteria, viruses, yeasts and parasites are inactivated as the water passes through.

No chemical is added. No chlorine, no disinfection by-products, no reactant storage to manage. The water leaves with exactly the same mineral composition, taste and odour as it entered, it is simply safe.

Why stainless steel

The stainless steel chamber is not a cosmetic detail. It reflects UV radiation inward: the radiation bounces off the walls instead of being absorbed, which increases the dose received by the water and improves lamp efficiency.

Stainless steel also resists pressure, UV radiation and time, where a plastic body becomes brittle. It is the standard for sterilisers designed to last.

Immediate and continuous action

Treatment is instantaneous: no contact time to observe, no holding tank required. As long as the lamp operates and water circulates, disinfection is assured, 24/7, without intervention.

6 GPM, the whole-house format

At 6 gallons per minute (approximately 23 l/min), this model does not treat a single draw point: it covers the main supply to a residence or small building, with multiple simultaneous draw points.

Typical applications:

• Private house supplied by well, borehole or spring
• Rainwater harvesting, after filtration
• Holiday cottage, guest house, campsite, farm
• Small food business, workshop, laboratory
• Securing a private network not connected to the public supply

Install last

The UV steriliser is placed at the end of the chain, after filtration. The reason is simple: suspended particles block the radiation and protect the micro-organisms they harbour. Clear water is the condition for effective disinfection.

In practice: sediment filtration, then activated carbon if necessary, then UV just before distribution. On heavily loaded borehole water, iron removal or water softening are also placed upstream.

Minimal maintenance

Maintenance comes down to two tasks: replace the lamp once a year, its intensity decreases before it fails, hence replacement on schedule rather than on failure, and periodically clean the quartz sleeve that protects the lamp, to prevent deposits from reducing UV transmission.

Nothing else. No monthly consumables, no adjustment.

Complete set

The steriliser is supplied ready to install, with its mounting and connection components. No additional orders before commissioning.
