Rainwater harbours bacteria of all types but in some cases, much more harmful bacteria may be present in the tank. E-Coli is a common bacterium in tank water and is due mostly to frogs living in and around your tanks\/catchment. Ultraviolet sanitation works by breaking down the cell wall of a micro-organism allowing oxidation to occur which in turn prevents the bacteria from multiplying until it is finally eradicated. Ultraviolet filtration is a chemical-free solution to water sanitation creating no by-products in the water.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"\u003e​We recommend adding the optional \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.filtersystemsaustralia.com.au\/uv-thermal-relief-valve-kit-1-female-bsp-316-stainless-steel-gt7-51.html\"\u003eUV Thermal Relief Valve\u003c\/a\u003e for any situation where the UV system is installed and water is not continuously running through the system.

A Thermal Relief Valve is recommended on installations where there can be prolonged periods of time without water flow, as the excessive build-up of heat in the chamber may cause the O-ring to deform and fail, causing leakage which can come into contact with the lamp\/power supply, thus causing damage. Generally lower wattage systems (less than 48W) such as the GT7-9K do not reach extreme temperatures under normal conditions; however, under certain circumstances, it may be necessary to install a TRV to limit the temperature. Most use-case scenarios with this system will not require a Thermal Relief Valve - however, if you think you might require one, please contact us prior to purchase so that we can determine if this is a requirement. Note: it is not recommended to leave the system and TRV in operation and unattended for extended periods of time (ie. more than 48 hours) - in such circumstances the system is best turned off.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff0000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"\u003eUV System Maintenence Notes:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"\u003eUltraviolet systems are rated based on a dosage level of UV-C radiation into the water (mJ\/cm²), with 30mJ\/cm² being the standard level of disinfection and a minimum dose of 40mJ\/cm² required to comply with Australian Drinking Water Guidelines. Our lamps are rated with a 9000 hour (1 year) lifespan, after which point the lamp will naturally degrade and the level of radiation produced by the lamp cannot be guaranteed.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"\u003eThe UV lamp sits inside a quartz thimble, which protects the electrical components of the lamp from making contact with the water.
