Advanced Protection
for Your Water Supply
Not all water quality concerns can be seen, tasted, or smelled. Bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms may be present in water without obvious warning signs, making proper testing and treatment essential for protecting your family and your water system.
Viqua UV water treatment systems use ultraviolet light technology to disinfect water as it passes through the system. This proven treatment method helps neutralize harmful microorganisms without adding chemicals to your water.
As a trusted water treatment provider, Bates Water Pros proudly offers Viqua UV systems for homeowners, well water users, ranches, businesses, and properties throughout Western Colorado.
How UV Water
Treatment Works
Ultraviolet disinfection is a simple yet highly effective treatment process.
As water flows through the UV chamber, it is exposed to a controlled dose of ultraviolet light. This light disrupts the DNA of bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms, preventing them from reproducing and making them harmless.
Benefits of UV treatment include:
- Chemical-free disinfection
- Continuous protection
- No impact on water taste or odor
- Environmentally friendly treatment
- Effective against many microorganisms
- Minimal maintenance requirements
UV treatment provides an additional layer of protection for homes and businesses concerned about microbiological contamination.
