With more than 35 years in the residential water treatment market, VIQUA has built a strong reputation for quality products. Their systems and lamps are designed on a solid foundation of research, development and have gone through rigorous performance testing to meet the certification and validation standards of the industry’s leading governing bodies. Using a lamp that was not designed by VIQUA for a VIQUA UV system poses health risk, fire risk, reliability risk, equipment failure or damage risk, and loss of system certification. You have invested in the best UV disinfection brand; using anything other than a VIQUA lamp is not worth the risk.
Other UV lamps may seem to fit a VIQUA system, however your are exposing yourself to the following risks:
Health Risk: Water may not be disinfected properly.
Fire Risk: VIQUA lamps only use non-flammable materials & are engineered to exact specifications to ensure safety.
Reliability Risk: Performance could be compromised & premature power supply failures may occur.
Equipment Damage or Failure Risk: Using other lamps in VIQUA systems greatly increases the chances of equipment damage, or even complete equipment failure.
Loss of Certification:VIQUA systems are certified as a complete unit which includes a VIQUA lamp. Third-party certification (NSF 55 and UL/CE) will be voided.
So what’s the difference?
We’ve thoroughly examined the other lamps and conducted tests to see how they could affect VIQUA systems.
Look for these brands – not part numbers. If it’s not branded by VIQUA, it’s not a VIQUA lamp. VIQUA is the guarantee of total UV system performance and safety.
Warranty:VIQUA genuine lamps come with a one-year comprehensive replacement warranty; and ensures all other system component warranties and certifications stay intact, too.
Long-Life Coating: VIQUA lamps have a proprietary coating for stability, longer life, increased efficiency, and higher UV output over the life of the lamp.
Environmentally-Friendly: VIQUA genuine lamps (with the exception of some special application lamps) contain nearly 70% less mercury than some non-VIQUA lamps.
Our philosophy is to foster a strong association between how clearly clean water will have a healthy biological influence on our bodies and preventative repairs and maintenance to our homes and businesses.
