Good To Know
- UV-C light damages eyes and skin — never run the lamp outside its housing; the AUTO-OFF cuts power when the unit is opened
- Fit it after the filter, on the return side, and run it continuously or on a timer
- Replace the UV-C lamp about every 6–12 months; output falls long before the lamp stops lighting
- Turn the steriliser off while dosing bacteria starters or some medications, as UV can break them down
- It clears free-floating algae and germs in the water — it won't touch algae growing on glass or decor
- Use a residual current device (RCD) on aquarium equipment and leave a drip loop in the cable so water can't run into the socket
