Well Bacteria UV System — Complete Disinfection
The problem
If your well water tests positive for coliform or E. coli bacteria, you face serious health risks from contamination. These bacteria can cause gastrointestinal illnesses and other infections if untreated, and since your water appears clear, the danger often goes unnoticed.
Bacteria and viruses in untreated well water can corrode plumbing, foul appliances, and compromise all household water uses. Without effective disinfection, your family’s health and comfort are at stake every time you turn on the tap.
How it works — the uv sterilizer + ro that fixes it
This system uses a genuine VIQUA UV Whole-House Sterilizer as its first line of defense, delivering chemical-free disinfection that kills 99.99% of bacteria, viruses, and cysts by exposing microbes to ultraviolet light that destroys their DNA and renders them harmless.
Following the UV stage, the Nelsen 4-Stage Reverse Osmosis (RO) Drinking System installed under the sink ensures bottled-quality water at your kitchen tap by removing residual contaminants, offering the final polish of pure, safe drinking water. Together, these matched stages form a complete, scientifically engineered water treatment train.
What it handles
Built for Bacteria (UV)
This system is specifically designed for well owners whose water tests positive for bacteria like coliform or E. coli but appears clear. The combination of a powerful whole-home VIQUA UV sterilizer with an under-sink Nelsen 4-stage RO system provides a complete solution tailored to these contamination challenges.
The UV sterilizer disinfects all water entering your home without chemicals, ensuring safe water at every tap, while the RO system delivers exceptionally pure drinking water at the kitchen sink. This integrated, matched train ensures thorough protection and peace of mind from source to sip.
Built on a genuine VIQUA valve — not a disposable clone
This system runs on a VIQUA control valve — the industry-standard brain of the system. Its parts are stocked by water dealers nationwide and stay available for decades, so a worn seal or piston is a quick, low-cost rebuild — never a throwaway. For a Bacteria (UV) where downtime is expensive, that serviceability is the whole point. We never build on unbranded clone heads that strand you when they fail.
Genuine, serviceable, warrantied — a system you keep for 15 years instead of replacing in four.
