VIQUA UV Lamp and Quartz Sleeve Replacement

Overview

UV Lamp replacement: The amount of UV light created by the UV lamp decreases over time, requiring that the UV lamp be

replaced. The system will automatically notify you when it is time to replace the UV lamp.

Quartz Sleeve replacement/maintenance: Minerals in the water slowly form a coating on the quartz sleeve. This coating must be

removed because it reduces the amount of UV light reaching the water, thereby reducing disinfection performance. If the quartz

sleeve can not be cleaned, it must be replaced.
