If your home runs on well water, you're responsible for ensuring it's safe to drink and use. Allied Water Services installs ultraviolet purification systems that kill bacteria and microorganisms as water flows past a UV lamp, giving you continuous disinfection without adding chlorine or other chemicals to your supply.

The UV unit fits directly into your water line and treats every gallon that enters your home. As water passes through the chamber, ultraviolet light disrupts the DNA of bacteria, viruses, and protozoa, rendering them unable to reproduce or cause illness. The process happens instantly and leaves no taste, odor, or chemical residue behind.

If you're looking for a way to protect your household from waterborne contaminants without changing how your water tastes, get in touch to discuss UV purification for your well system.

How Our Process Works

The UV system includes a stainless steel chamber, a UV lamp, and a control unit that monitors lamp performance. You'll see an indicator light confirming the system is operating correctly every time you check on it.

After Allied Water Services completes the installation, you'll have water that's continuously disinfected without any change in taste or appearance. Low-maintenance operation means you only need to replace the UV lamp once a year, and the unit runs quietly in the background without drawing attention.

The system is designed to handle your household's flow rate, so you won't notice any drop in water pressure at fixtures or appliances. Installation includes mounting the unit near your pressure tank and connecting it to your electrical supply, ensuring the lamp stays powered at all times.

Homeowners with well water often have specific questions about how UV purification fits into their water treatment plan and what maintenance looks like over time. Here are the most common concerns addressed.

What types of contaminants does UV light kill?

UV purification is effective against bacteria including E. coli, viruses such as hepatitis, and protozoa like giardia and cryptosporidium. It does not remove sediment or dissolved chemicals, so pre-filtration is often recommended.

How often does the UV lamp need replacement?
The lamp typically lasts one year before its intensity drops below effective levels. You'll receive a reminder when it's time to replace it, and the process takes just a few minutes.

Why is UV purification better than chlorine for well water?
UV treatment kills microorganisms without adding anything to your water, so you avoid the taste and odor associated with chlorine. The process also leaves no chemical residue that could affect plumbing or appliances.

What happens if the power goes out?
The system stops disinfecting when power is lost, so you should avoid using water until electricity is restored. Once power returns, the unit resumes operation immediately without requiring any reset.

How do I know the system is working?
The control unit displays a status light that stays illuminated when the lamp is functioning correctly. If the light goes out or changes color, the system alerts you to check the lamp or connections.

Once your UV purification system is installed, you'll have ongoing protection against waterborne microorganisms without changing the taste or chemistry of your water. If you're ready to add UV treatment to your well system, contact us to schedule an installation.
