Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is a UVC system and what is it used for?

A UVC system is used in water purification technology. This can be industrial or in the hobby sector, such as a pond. It irradiates the water and kills bacteria, viruses and algae. The result is clear and uncontaminated water.

How does a UVC system work?

As its name suggests, a UV system works with UV light. When in operation, water flows past the UV lamp and kills the organisms. It is important to note that the radiation is also harmful to the eyes and skin. Therefore, when working on the UV system, it is important to switch it off first.

How do I choose the right size UVC system for my pond?

It is recommended to have at least 3-4 watts of power per cubic meter of water. Of course, there are other factors such as a high fish population or a lot of sunlight which can be counteracted with more power.

How often should the UVC lamp be replaced?

The UV-C light source, also called the UV lamp, should be replaced once a year as it loses power over time. If the UV lamp lights up red, it is defective and must also be replaced.

Does a UVC system affect the health of my koi fish?

Yes, it ensures that the number of bacteria and viruses in the water is reduced. This puts less strain on the Koi's immune system.
