How It Works
- Water Entry: Incoming water flows into the UV reactor chamber.
- UV-C Exposure: High-intensity UV light disrupts the DNA of bacteria, viruses, and other microbes, rendering them unable to reproduce.
- Safe Water Delivery: Disinfected water exits the system, supplying every tap with microbiologically improved water.
No chemicals are used — the system relies solely on ultraviolet light to ensure water safety.
