An ultraviolet water treatment system's purpose is to eliminate microbiological contaminants - without chemicals - so you have safer, bacteria-free water whenever you need it. EPA Water Consultants recommends everyone on well water test for coliform and install a system before you get a failing bacteria result to stay proactive.
The system destroys bacteria, viruses, and other organisms so your home gets safer, bacteria-free water.
Treatment happens without chemicals, so nothing is added that changes how your water tastes or smells.
Like a smoke detector, UV watches your water constantly, ensuring quick protect if coliform shows up down the line.
While many UV customers are on well water, city water users find these effective during boil advisories.
Ultraviolet Water Purification
Once a UV system is installed, the light needs to be replaced on a yearly basis. We can handle this as part of our service plan.
Coliform bacteria are microbiological contaminants that can enter private wells and, at times, municipal supplies when treatment or distribution fails. The EPA recommends testing well water every year. Finding coliform early allows you to address the issue before anyone drinks the water and gets sick.
UV protection isn't one-size-fits-all. We start with your water test results and build a system that matches your home's actual contamination profile and flow rate.
We test for coliform bacteria, E. coli, and other microorganisms to confirm what you're dealing with.
System capacity is matched to your home's water usage so every drop gets proper disinfection time.
The system is placed at your main water line or under the kitchen sink - discreet, efficient, and easy to access for lamp replacement.
We reach out when your UV lamp is due for replacement so your protection never lapses.
Three straightforward steps from first call to bacteria-free water - no pressure, no guesswork.
We test for coliform, E. coli, and other bacteria that pose health risks. We'll do a complete analysis with no cost and no obligation.
We review your results with you, explained clearly. We recommend UV protection only if bacteria is present or at high risk with honest pricing, no upselling.
Most UV system installs happen within 1-2 weeks. We remind you when your lamp needs replacement so your water stays protected.
Common questions about UV purification, answered by our experts.
UV light disinfects bacteria, viruses, and some protozoa as water passes through the treatment chamber. It’s highly effective against coliform and E. coli - the primary bacterial concerns in well water - and helps deliver safer, bacteria-free water without adding chemicals.
UV does not remove sediment, hardness minerals, chemicals, or other dissolved contaminants, so we often pair it with a whole house filter when your free water test shows those issues too.
Boiling can kill bacteria, but it’s impractical for every faucet and every use - cooking, bathing, dishwashing, and brushing teeth - day after day. Chlorine can disinfect, but it adds chemicals and often leaves taste or odor issues many homeowners dislike.
UV uses light energy to disable pathogens as water flows through the system, with no chemical residue and no change to how your water tastes or smells. Once installed, it runs continuously in the background, protecting every drop 24/7 instead of relying on temporary steps during a boil-water alert.
Total Coliform is a broad group of bacteria used as an indicator of overall water quality - if coliforms are present, it signals that harmful microorganisms may have entered your water supply.
E. coli (Escherichia coli) is a specific type of coliform bacteria that originates from human or animal fecal matter, making it a much more serious concern.
While a positive Total Coliform result doesn't always mean your water is dangerous, a positive E. coli result is a direct indicator of fecal contamination and poses a significant health risk. In short, E. coli is a subset of Total Coliform, but its presence requires immediate action - including disinfection and retesting - to ensure your water is safe to drink.
Yes! That’s one of the biggest reasons homeowners install UV even when today’s test looks clean. Well conditions and groundwater can change, and coliform or other bacteria can show up later without much warning.
A UV system works like a smoke detector: it watches your water continuously and is ready to protect you whether bacteria is present today or appears down the road.
The EPA recommends annual well testing for coliform. Ultraviolet treatment adds continuous disinfection between those checks so you’re not waiting for a failing result to start protecting your family.
A whole house filtration system is great for sediment and many dissolved contaminants, but filters don’t kill living bacteria. Ultraviolet disinfection is the best defense against coliform and E. coli because it targets microbiological contaminants specifically.
Many customers use both: the filter handles particles and related water-quality issues, and UV provides continuous bacterial protection. We also see city-water customers add UV for peace of mind during boil advisories. Your free in-home test for coliform, E. coli, and other bacteria helps us recommend only what your water actually needs - honest pricing, no upselling.
If your water tests positive for coliform, stop using it for drinking or cooking immediately, and switch to bottled water or another safe source right away. Then, contact a water treatment professional as soon as possible to identify the source of contamination - whether it's your well, plumbing, or another entry point. A follow-up E. coli test is essential to determine if fecal contamination is present and how urgent the situation is.
In the meantime, boiling water can make it temporarily safe for consumption, but this is not a long-term fix. A permanent solution - such as UV disinfection, chlorination, or a certified filtration system - should be installed based on your specific test results.
Real reviews from homeowners across multiple Eastern Pennsylvania counties.
“Off the top of my head, I count 5 systems they have done for us. Some systems have been more complex than others. We have had well water and city water. We had to have a UV light on one of our systems due to bacteria. They have been able to treat whatever is needed.”
“We recently had EPA install a water softener, reverse osmosis, carbon filter and UV disinfection system in our newly constructed townhome. Everyone was professional and a pleasure to work with. Work was completed when promised and we can definitely tell a difference in our water quality. I highly recommend these folks if you need anything related to your water.”
“EPA Water Consultants has been taking care of us for a number of years. They are wonderful! Always prompt, thorough, knowledgeable and extremely kind... I would highly recommend them.”
