It is able to completely disinfect and sanitize without the need for chemical additives that often create harmful side effects and change the taste of the water. Other advantages of UV disinfection and sanitization devices are simple installation, low operating costs and minimal space required. UV method for disinfection and sanitization It is suitable for residential, office and industrial places. In the design of disinfection and sterilization devices UV can accommodate predictable changes such as installation location. Groundwater is also increasingly a source of waterborne diseases caused by bacteria and viruses - microbes that UV light instantly neutralizes. If the incoming water contains heavy metal ions or high turbidity, these substances absorb the radiation and thus prevent its optimal functioning.

These systems are usually installed at the outlet of reverse osmosis devices (RO devices) and after the storage tank.
