What is ultraviolet?
A. Sunlight has long since been known to kill micro-organisms. The rays from the Sun contain the UV Spectrum used in Ultraviolet Water Treatment Systems–although at much lower intensities. It is also referred to as either the Germicidal Spectrum or Frequency. The frequency used in killing micro-organisms is 254 nanometers (nm). The UV lamps that Noah uses are designed specifically to have the highest amount of UV energy at this frequency.
