After the RO filtration of water is there any need of UV filtration ? why?

Hi there, I my sentiment the biggest sources of bacterial pollution are failing septic systems and pet wastes. In rural areas, you can almost always add livestock waste. In some areas, wildlife contributes their own pollution. Each year, health inspectors concentrate on a handful of watersheds in Kitsap County. The fact that local waters are growing cleaner in the mush of expanding development must be testimony to their success.

Has anyone had experience in using UV light to kill E. Coil bacteria in drinking water?

Water assay results show our water is contaminated with E. Coli bacteria. I'm considering installing a UV light filtration system, and wonder if anyone has had covet term success in killing E.Coli bacteria. Our water source is a mountain stream running through our property it is fenced to keep stock out of the water. But becomes contaminated from pasture runoff. Our other option is chlorine treatment in the water tank. not my preferred choice.

UV brightness is my vote. Bromine is very dangerous, expensive, and is harmful to many types of water pipes, over time causing leaks. Another choice i didnt see listed is installing an "ozonanator" to purify your system, but that can only be used if all your plumbing pipes are workable, specifically, PVC schedule 80. RO or "Reverse osmosis" is not an option for you because it is EXTREMELY high-priced to have a whole house RO system installed, they are usually just good for under the sink drinking water etc. Ive had very good luck with UV inane filtration, as have many of my customers whose plumbing ive worked on, customers including Armor Swift Eckridge, McDonalds, Pepsi, and Coca Cola, and BNSF railroad. Only done a few UV lights for residential units, but all have had very proper results, below is a quotation taken directly from the EPA website and below that is the link you can check for yourself. Best of Luck.


"If my well is contaminated with E. coli, what can I do to preserve myself?"

If your well tests positive for E. coli, do not drink the water unless you boil it for at least one minute at a rolling fume, longer if you live at high altitudes. You may also disinfect the well according to procedures recommended by your local form department. Monitor your water periodically after disinfection to make certain that the problem does not recur. If the contamination is a recurring dilemma, you should investigate the feasibility of drilling a new well or install a point-of-entry disinfection unit, which can use chlorine, ultraviolet obscure, or ozone.

What is the best whole house water filter solution to get as-close-to-distilled water as possible?

I'm looking for a water filtration settling that works as well as water distilliation -- a single unit or multiple units that remove *EVERYTHING* from the water.

I have inquired Hibernal Bear distillers about whether their systems could be used on a whole house and they told me that they could not -- is this true? Couldn't multiple distillers, or distillers linked to larger storage tanks be against together?

What are some of the products out there and how can these products be installed and/or linked together? Can you use a softener, a Reverse-Osmosis and a UV filter all at once, for instance? Are there systems that do all of this without having to "confine" them together?

Please do not let cost considerations inhibit replies -- I would like to know about systems in all toll ranges. Thank you!

I put in a Rayne system to do neutral this. It can be used with a Reverse Osmosis and UV filter at the same time. They are expensive units, but mine came with a lifetime assurance. Glad it did, too, because my pressure regulator blew the tank and even though it was caused by something outside of the unit, they replaced it for charitable.
