'Fresh Water Filter Philosophy...to supply high quality products and services, to produce the finest, healthy water that creates human, environmental and commercial benefits, and to be constantly aware that these benefits are mutually interdependent.'

The Victorian water supply pipework in London is deteriorating and leaking water. Thames Water has put replacing water mains at the centre of its 2005 - 2010 investment plan.

UV Water Purifier

Ultraviolet Light destroys bacteria naturally

Ultraviolet light is a natural component of sunlight, falling just below the visible light region of the electromagnetic spectrum. Higher energy wavelengths of UV light have the unique ability to destroy micro-organisms (bacteria, viruses, cysts, etc.) in water or air, stopping the ability to multiply and cause infection and illness.

Unlike chemical disinfectants, which rely on chemical oxidation to disrupt the life functions of micro-organisms, UV is simply light energy that cripples the DNA of harmful organisms.

By disabling their DNA the life functions of these organisms are interrupted, rendering them harmless. Because no chemicals are involved, you don’t have to worry about drinking harmful chemicals or their by-products.

Typical applications of UV water treatment include municipal drinking water supplies, private water supplies, aquariums, industrial water processes and hospitals.

How does the Fresh Water Filter system work?

Fresh Water Filter water sterilisers employ a low-pressure mercury vapour discharge lamp surrounded by a water jacket whose inner wall is made from a special UVC-transparent quartz metal. The lamp produces a very strong spectral line at 254nm in the shortwave UVC region, which is the waveband most lethal to micro-organisms. The UV light shines powerfully through water passing along the unit, destroying the cell DNA (or RNA in the case of viruses) making the micro-organisms inactive. Fresh Water Filter units use a stainless steel water chamber maximising full use of the available ultra-violet energy, resulting in long exposure times and high UV doses and minimising UV light absorption into the chamber wall.

The benefits of Ultraviolet Disinfection

  • Enhances overall water safety
    Effective destruction of dangerous organisms that can pass through other treatment processes and reach your tap.
  • No harmful chemicals or by-products
    No residuals or harmful chemical by-products (such as Trihalomethanes) are introduced into the water .
  • No affect on taste and water quality
    UV does not affect the taste, odour or clarity of the water.
  • Simple to install, low maintenance
    Aquada UV systems are easily installed in your household water line following any pretreatment that may be required. UV lamps are easy to replace and only require changing after one full year of use.
  • Economical
    Aquada UV systems require less energy than a typical household light bulb yet can disinfect the entire water flow to your home.

Which system is right for me?

The system that is right for you depends on the maximum flow capacity in your home. Our technical information gives details of the capabilities of each of the units we supply. Please contact us if you are unsure of which system would be right for you.
