  • Seems to do the job, worth the money
Size: 3/4" MNPT
Easy to install with basic plumbing materials. Seems to work as my water tested negative for bacteria post installation. Seems cheap to run. Be careful installing the light / sleeve, very easy to break.

  • Works! Now a year later, time for yearly maintenance...with two howto hints
Size: 3/4" MNPT
Yearly maintenance consists of changing the UV tube and cleaning the quartz tube. Remove the old UV tube and put aside. Next, following the instructions, shut off the water to the unit, drain that loop and remove the gasketing rings on each end. Remember that gloves must be worn when handling quartz glass as hand oil will eat at them. Remove the tube and clean it, as per the instructions. I have clean softened water so the outside of the tube was fine. What the instructions don't cover is that the UV bulb heat causes outgassing of the plastic guard on the tube...which puts a film on the INSIDE of the tube (like the film on the inside of your car windshield). How to clean it, the instructions don't say. HINT #1: Get a 24" claw mechanic's pickup tool like this: www.amazon.com/ALINNA-Flexible-Grabber-Bendable-Reaching/dp/B098F3VWDV/ and a piece of paper towel. Gather a dry piece of the towel up in a LOOSE wad with the pickup tool and gentle feed it down the quartz tube, turning it gentle to wipe the inside of the tube. Gently pull it out. Now reassemble the tube in the filter house and reseal it with the o-rings and collars. Put on the gloves if you haven't and feed the new tube in. Now HINT #2: You have to unplug the ballast and replug it after connecting the UV tube to the ballast 4 conductor connector. If you never unplug the ballast before connecting the new lamp, it won't come on. Hope this helps. My original review, a year ago...this still holds.=================================== I've been a professional mechanical contractor. The gear was was well made and straightforward to install. The one item damaged in shipment was replaced cheerfully and immediately; they even gave me two in place of the one busted one. That's service and customer attention! ... show more

  • Jorin acknowledged HQUA-TWS-12 Ultraviolet Water Purifier Filter for whole house
Size: 3/4" MNPT
My plumber recommended this unit. Seems to be working just fine. It's a little small, and I've read recent articles that shorter bulbs might not be doing as good a job as longer ones? Anyway, 6 months now using it and not difficulties, and I ain't got sick yet -- so there's that! Jorin acknowledged.

  • Easy Install -Great Product
Size: 1" MNPT
Great product! Easy install. I used a pre-filter before the carbon tank and a post filter after the conditioner tank to ensure no particles get into the UV light. Love the holes in the bottom cap that shows the light is actually on. Doesn’t come with any reducers as I use 3/4” hoses and the housing is 1”. Ensure you have rubber washers inside the reducer to avoid leaking as I originally had a slow drip with the pvc version I made from the home store before I went online and ordered better ones. Lastly, no adverse impact to water pressure, in-fact I removed an older water softener before installing this new system and my water pressure increased significantly. ... show more

  • Fantastic customer service.
Size: 3/4" MNPT
I seldom post ratings unless I am exceptionally impressed with a product. This item was easy to install, is obviously quality built and works perfectly for our well water. The most impressive part, and what inspired me to write this review, was the exceptional customer service. When I first installed the unit, the ballast light came on briefly, then went out. I installed the replacement bulb that came with it, and it works fine. I sent an email to the company with the order info, and the next day received a response that they had already shipped a replacement scheduled to arrive the following day. After having so many issues with unanswered customer service requests, these guys were a breath of fresh air. ... show more

  • The instructions recommend 5-6" of metal pipe coming out of the unit!
Size: 3/4" MNPT
First off, the unit works great. Had the water tested before and after, and the bacteria is gone. I have two issues with the unit. First, the in and out ports are not labeled. Are they reversible? I don't know. The instructions don't make it any clearer. One pictures shows the inlet nearest to the UV tube, the other shows it on the one further away. I resorted to looking at all the pictures here to figure it out. Which brings me to the second issue. Looking at all these pictures, most people are plumbing it directly with PEX, which was my plan. However in scouring the instructions to figure out the issue above, I found a note that the UV unit must be installed with 5" of metal pipe at the inlet and outlet, to prevent overheating and degrading the PEX, releasing chemicals into the water. I had to run out and get fittings and pipe in order to do that, and it really changed the whole layout, needing 10 extra inches of space. Both of these issues could be more clear in the instructions, and also in the product description. Clearly a lot of people are either missing the proper way to install it, or just don't care. ... show more

  • Top Quality and Service
Size: 3/4" MNPT
The HQUA whole house UV water filter was easy to install and eliminated any question of microbial contamination for my well water. Although the packaging was very solid, I did need to request customer support for damage that appeared to have been caused in transit. With a single email, the damaged items were immediately dispatched and were in my hands within a matter of days. I would definitely recommend HQUA for their quality product and outstanding customer service. ... show more
