Disinfection Procedure:
UV disinfection is a physical disinfection process and does not add any potentially
harmful chemicals to the water. As UV does not provide a disinfection residual, it is
strongly recommended that the entire distribution system located after the UV be
chemically disinfected to ensure that the pipework is free from any bacteriological
contaminants. The disinfection process should be performed immediately after the
UV unit is installed and repeated thereafter whenever the UV is shut down for ser-
vice, without power, or inoperative for any reason.
