Atlantic Ultraviolet AD12-2 UV Light Bulb for Germicidal Water Treatment
The Atlantic Ultraviolet AD12-2 UV Light Bulb for Germicidal Water Treatment is a 12 Watt water treatment bulb. The replacement bulb comes with a total length of 9.17". The light bulb has a peak output of 253.7nm that is the wavelength that is necessary to alter the genetic makeup of the microorganisms, rendering them harmless. The UVC lamp bulb is built in a non ozone glass layer and uses ceramic material.
Studies show that the UVC method of water treatment is the safest method as it is only a physical process and does not change the chemical composition, pH or taste of water.
It effectively kills bacteria, virus, protozoa, molds and yeast and provides a 12 months worry free guarantee. CureUV recommends that you replace the light bulb every year even if it continues to emit light, in order to maintain its germ-destroying ability.
