How does UV disinfection work?
The germicidal energy of ultraviolet light destroys illness-causing microorganisms by attacking their genetic core
(DNA). This powerful dose of UV light eliminates their ability to reproduce, and the organisms simply die.
Water is purified by running it through a watertight chamber that contains an ultraviolet lamp. As water flows past, microorganisms are exposed to a lethal dose of germicidal UV energy.

UV
systems treat the water for the whole home, eliminating 99.99% of bacteria and viruses including chlorine resisitant cysts
that are not tested for in routine water tests (such as Cryptosporidium and Giardia).
The TrojanUVMax™ provides the final stage of treatment before water is fed to your hot water heater and faucets, supplying safe water to every tap in your home.
To ensure proper performance, water entering a TrojanUVMax™ system should be pre-filtered using a standard 5-micron filter, and meet basic water quality parameters: Iron <0.3ppm; Hardness >120 ppm (7GPG);
