UV treats water against bacteria, viruses, and microbes. They address different things — filtration alone does not treat microbiological contamination, and UV alone cannot work effectively if the water is turbid or contains sediment. Together they provide whole house treatment for tank and bore water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy does the order matter?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUV treatment requires clear water. If sediment reaches the UV chamber, it blocks the UV light from reaching micro-organisms in the water — reducing or eliminating treatment effectiveness. The Clarity I's sediment stage ensures clear water arrives at the UV chamber.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's the difference between this bundle and the Clarity II + UV 33W bundle?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Clarity II bundle adds a 1 micron polyspun second stage between the pleated filter and the UV unit. This removes fine silt and particles that pass through the 20 micron pleated stage and provides additional particulate protection before UV treatment. If your water has a higher fine sediment load, the Clarity II bundle is the better choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs this suitable for bore water?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt can be, but bore water varies significantly from site to site. We recommend testing your bore water before ordering — get in touch and we'll help you confirm this is the right configuration for your supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDo the two items need to be installed at the same time?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey can be installed together or separately. The Clarity I filter system is installed upstream and the UV unit downstream — the UV unit should always be the last stage before water enters the home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDo I need a plumber to install it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe recommend a licensed plumber for both components. The Clarity I uses standard 25mm BSP fittings and arrives pre-assembled with a housing spanner. The UV unit uses 25mm BSP and plugs into a standard 240V outlet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat warranty applies?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth items carry a 3-year manufacturer's warranty.
