The PURE UVB-2 Water Treatment System is easy to install and takes up little space under your kitchen sink!

Protect your drinking water from E. Coli, Shigella dysenteriae, Salmonella, and other outbreaks that occur from time to time, in both municipal and well water supplies. The space-saving design of The UV-1 under-counter ultraviolet water sterilizer includes two stages of filtration for disinfected, bacteria-free water.

  • Stage 1 - 0.5-micron Carbon Block Filter - As water enters the housing, it flows down through a 0.5-micron carbon block cartridge that removes heavy metals (such as lead, mercury, copper) and cysts (including crypto, giardia cysts) as well as chlorine, taste, odors, and chemical impurities from the water.
    Replace the carbon block filter every 8-12 months.
  • Stage 2 - Germicidal Ultraviolet - The water then flows up through the center of the carbon block cartridge where the UV chamber is located. As water enters the stainless steel disinfecting chamber, it's exposed to high levels of ultraviolet light that attack harmful microorganisms, bacteria, viruses and sterilizes them. This process of purification works without chemicals and leaves no residual in the water supply. It is also more cost-effective than traditional methods of water disinfection, including chlorinating, distilling or boiling.
    Replace the UV Lamp once per year.

NOTE: Stages 1 & 2 are combined in the same housing.

Ultraviolet disinfection is accepted by both the EPA and the FDA as a safe, effective method of bacteria control.

This compact, all-in-one drinking water system installs with ease and can be used anywhere that clean, clear, good tasting disinfected water is needed. The UV lamp and carbon filters are easily accessible for years of maintenance-easy performance. It's ideal for point-of-use applications including under the kitchen sink, office water coolers, water vending machines, boats, recreational vehicles, etc.

How Effective is UV?

Ultraviolet (UV) light from the sun has long been known for its ability to destroy microorganisms. However, it has only been in recent years that equipment producing UV light has been manufactured for residential use. UV energy is produced by low-pressure mercury vapor enclosed in a tubular lamp. While a UV lamp resembles a standard fluorescent lamp, it is similar in appearance only. The energy produced by the UV lamp has the ability to destroy microorganisms that can live in water. There are five major groups of microorganisms that are altered by a specific spectrum of ultraviolet light: viruses, bacteria, fungi, algae, and protozoa. When these microbes are exposed to the proper amount of UV energy, their DNA structure is scrambled, and they are unable to reproduce. Since the cell is now sterile or dead, it is no longer a threat.
