WSP UV Water Sterilizer

If your well water sometimes tastes or smells off, or you're worried about bacteria and other microorganisms, a UV water sterilizer like this one from Water Softener Plus (WSP) can help reduce those concerns. It uses ultraviolet light to disinfect your water without chemicals and comes in sizes to fit different flow rates.

The problem you’re living with

When well water isn’t treated, you may notice a faint musty or earthy taste, or water that smells strange when you run the tap. Sometimes, you might see cloudy water or little bits floating, and you might worry about bacteria making the water less pleasant or safe to use. You may have had unexplained skin irritation or found that your water smells like chlorine after treatment with other methods. If you’ve ever had to boil water or rely on bottled water after testing your well, this is the kind of problem you’re facing.

Why it’s happening

Well water sources can contain bacteria, viruses, and cysts that get into your water supply naturally. These microorganisms come from soil, animals, or nearby water bodies and are not always removed by simple filters or conventional treatment. The best way to confirm if your water has this issue is to have it tested by a qualified lab for bacterial contamination, such as coliform bacteria or E. coli. That test shows whether microorganisms are present and if you need a water disinfecting solution.

What it’s costing you to leave it

Leaving bacteria and other microorganisms untreated doesn’t just affect taste or smell. It can cause appliances that use water to foul or wear more quickly, and it can make household cleaning harder because the water isn’t as fresh. Your coffee or ice might taste off, and laundry may not smell clean after washing. Over time, this also means more time spent cleaning sinks, faucets, or water fixtures to deal with film or deposits that bacteria encourage.

How this system fixes it

This UV water sterilizer uses a special ultraviolet light to inactivate bacteria, viruses, and cysts. The UV light penetrates the microorganisms’ cells and disrupts their ability to reproduce, which effectively reduces their presence in your water. This method uses no chemicals, so your water’s taste and odor stay natural. It’s a straightforward, proven technology that works as water passes through the system.

What this system can handle

The WSP UV Water Sterilizer comes in four sizes to match different household or light commercial needs. You can choose from models rated for flow rates of 10, 21, or 36 gallons per minute. This means it can handle small to large homes and even some small facilities. The system works continuously, with the UV light operating whenever water runs through it. It’s designed to maintain steady water pressure while disinfecting, so you won’t notice a drop in flow. The unit is built to work reliably over long periods before any maintenance is needed.

What you actually get

When you order the WSP UV Water Sterilizer, you receive the sterilization unit itself, which includes the UV lamp and quartz sleeve inside a stainless steel chamber. The exact configuration depends on your chosen size and is confirmed when sizing for your water flow and needs. The system is ready to integrate with your existing water setup but requires installation by your local licensed plumber.

Is this the right size for you

To pick the right size, consider the maximum flow rate your household or facility needs. Smaller homes or those with lower water demand might find the 10 GPM model sufficient. Average-sized homes often do well with the 21 GPM unit. Larger homes or light commercial settings that use more water simultaneously may need the 36 GPM option. If you have unusually high water demand, consult with our experts to ensure you get the best fit.

Living with it

Maintenance for this UV system is straightforward but important. The UV lamp typically needs replacing about once a year to keep disinfecting performance high. You’ll also want to clean the quartz sleeve that protects the lamp occasionally, especially if your water has sediment or minerals that can build up. These tasks are simple and can be done by your plumber or a handy homeowner with some care.

What it won’t do

This UV sterilizer does not remove sediment, chemicals, or minerals like iron or hardness from your water. It only reduces bacteria, viruses, and cysts. If your water has cloudiness from dirt or tastes metallic, you’ll need additional filtration or treatment. Also, it doesn’t store or soften water—those require separate systems.
