16 Watt UV Filtration System for bach or outbuilding
$650.00
Our 16 Watt unit can treat up to 12 litres per minute of water, and is suitable for a small bach, a farm outbuilding or even an off-grid hut in the bush. It can be used to purify harvested rainwater, bore water or direct from a stream/river.
Our small 16 Watt system uses 3 stage filtration:
Stage 1: Sediment filtration - this is where particles of dirt, decaying leaves, rust and scale are captured.
Stage 2: Activated Carbon - this is called a CTO filter Chlorine, Taste and Odour. It removes a wide range of undesirable chemicals such as Chlorine, while retaining most of the healthy minerals. (see here for more detail on what carbon filters remove)
Stage 3: Ultraviolet filtration - the water passes through a stainless steel reactor which contains a germicidal UV lamp. The UV light kills up to 99.9% of harmful microorganisms including viruses, bacteria like E. coli and salmonella, algae and fungi. (see here for more information on UV water treatment)
