Chemical & UV Systems
Discover advanced treatment solutions to keep your pool, spa or hot tub crystal‑clear, hygienic, and low‑maintenance.
Why Choose UV-Enhanced Water Treatment?
Ultraviolet (UV-C) technology is a proven method to significantly reduce chemical usage—by up to 90%—while neutralising bacteria, viruses and algae without creating harmful by-products :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}. UV treatment helps maintain a healthier and more pleasant water environment, eliminating eye and skin irritation commonly linked to chlorine.
Clearer, Safer Water with Less Chemical Use
By integrating UV systems into your pool or spa, you dramatically lower reliance on chlorinated chemicals. The result? Superior hygiene and reduced irritation without compromising water quality — all while saving on ongoing chemical costs :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}.
How UV Systems Work
- Water flows through the UV reactor chamber between the filter and heater.
- UV‑C lamps emit high‑intensity light that disrupts the DNA of microorganisms, rendering them harmless :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}.
- Clean water returns to your pool—with minimal chemical residual required to maintain balance.

In Bournemouth, we retrofitted an existing pool with a UV-C system, resulting in a 70% chemical reduction and improved swimmer comfort—a highlight in our recent projects gallery.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Do UV systems eliminate the need for chlorine?
- Not completely. UV systems work as a secondary sanitiser—minimal chlorine is still needed to maintain balance and residual protection.
- How often should the UV lamp be replaced?
- UV lamps typically require replacement every 9–12 months or approx. 13,000 operating hours to maintain effectiveness :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}.
- Can I add a UV system to my existing pool?
- Yes—we can integrate UV units seamlessly into existing setups, including salt-water and pumped systems.
- What are the energy costs of running a UV system?
- UV systems are energy-efficient—often drawing less power than a single 200‑watt lamp—maximising savings and sustainability :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}.
