Question 1

How do pool UV systems work?

Accepted Answer

Pool UV systems use ultraviolet light to kill bacteria, viruses, and algae in water. UV rays neutralize harmful microorganisms without adding chemicals. The treated water returns to the pool crystal clear. UV systems are often used alongside chlorine for maximum safety.

Question 2

What are the benefits of UV pool sterilization?

Accepted Answer

Benefits include: chemical-free sanitization, reduced chlorine smell, safer for sensitive skin, crystal-clear water, eco-friendly operation, and lower chemical costs. UV systems significantly reduce algae and improve overall water quality.

Question 3

Do UV systems replace pool chlorine?

Accepted Answer

UV systems work best combined with low-level chlorine (2-3 ppm) rather than replacing it entirely. This hybrid approach provides maximum disinfection while reducing chemical use by 50-75%. Waterscape offers systems designed for this balanced approach.

Question 4

What is the difference between UV clarifiers and UV sterilizers?

Accepted Answer

UV clarifiers target algae spores and suspended particles, improving water clarity. UV sterilizers kill bacteria and viruses. Professional pools often use both systems together for complete water purification.

Question 5

How often do UV bulbs need replacement?

Accepted Answer

UV bulbs typically last 8,000-12,000 hours (8-12 months of continuous operation). Annual bulb replacement is recommended at the start of pool season. Waterscape provides replacement bulbs and installation support.

Question 6

Are UV systems suitable for residential pools?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Waterscape stocks UV systems for residential, commercial, and competition pools. Residential UV systems are compact, energy-efficient, and easy to install. They significantly improve water quality and reduce maintenance.
