Because output degrades gradually even while the lamp still glows, the lamp should be replaced every 12 months to keep protection at full strength.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eNeed a Smaller System?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor residential and light commercial flow rates (4 LPM–175 LPM), see our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.waterfiltersonline.co.nz\/collections\/uv-systems-complete\"\u003ecomplete UV systems collection\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFAQs\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I choose the right model for my application?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMatch the model to your peak flow rate, not your average. If your system needs to handle 400 LPM at the busiest times, choose the UVA-3600HO (422 LPM) or higher rather than sizing to average daily flow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes water pressure affect UV disinfection performance?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Dwell time inside the chamber decreases as flow rate increases, which is why each model has a fixed maximum flow rate. Running above the rated LPM for a given model reduces UV dose and disinfection reliability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan these units run continuously, or do they need to be switched off overnight?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThey’re designed for continuous operation. The controller display keeps track of lamp hours regardless of flow, so there’s no need to power down between uses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat water quality is required before the UV chamber?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWater should be pre-filtered for sediment and have reasonable clarity, since suspended particles can shield micro-organisms from UV exposure and reduce effectiveness. A pre-filter stage is recommended if your supply carries turbidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat happens if the lamp fails while the system is running?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe controller display raises an alarm on lamp failure, so you’re alerted immediately rather than unknowingly running unsterilised water through the system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs a quartz sleeve required, and does it need separate maintenance?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYes, the UV lamp sits inside a quartz sleeve within the stainless steel chamber. The sleeve should be checked periodically for scaling or fouling, since a coated sleeve blocks UV transmission even with a healthy lamp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAnnual Maintenance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eReplace the UV lamp every 12 months regardless of appearance. UV output degrades over time even when the lamp is still glowing.
