Cactus 8 Residential UV Purification System

Cactus 8

Field-Proven with a decade long track record in demanding municipal, industrial and commercial applications. Cactus® reduces pathogens (e-coli, bacteria, cysts and most viruses) to safe levels. Provides peace of mind with purification dosage validated to meet Class A requirements of NSF/ANSI Standard 55.

THE MOST ADVANCED UV TECHNOLOGY AVAILABLE

  • Cactus is the only residential UV purification system with Crossfire Technology.

  • High- output UV lamps inside elliptical reflectors target pathogens with radiation from 360°, providing the highest UV dose possible to deactivate pathogens and ensure safe drinking water.


QUICK AND EASY MAINTENANCE

  • Cactus is as easy to maintain, as it is effective. The lamps last a full year, and are as easy to change as a table lamp.

  • The view port lets you know the lamps are working. No draining, disassembly, or risk of quartz breaking like ordinary UV systems.
