Did you know that ultraviolet light can reduce chlorine rates by 99%? An ultraviolet sterilization system compared to that of a chlorine cleaning system dramatically lowers the chemical environment. The ultraviolet bulb used in UV sterilization, replaced on an annual bases, far outweighs the negative effects of chlorine in our world. Not only is it better for our environment, but the costs associated with a chlorine sterilization system far exceeds that of the ultraviolet system. The ultraviolet system is unrivaled protection against contamination.
Chlorine VS. Ultraviolet
Chlorine provides toxic byproducts, which build up in water and atmosphere–UV destroys these.
Chlorine is a slow acting disinfectant, unless concentrations are high–UV acts instantly.
Excessive chlorine is needed to overcome high organic loads–UV cuts costs by releasing the combined chlorine.
