Kill the Bacteria in Your Water Supply
Types of Well Water contaminants a UV System will remove:
Bacteria
A many number of all wells have unacceptable levels of total coliforms.
This suggests that disease causing organisms could be present.
A major cause of this contamination is insufficient well maintenance.
Coliform
Coliform organisms are a group of bacteria that are frequently found in the environment and are used to measure the safety of your water.
If coliform bacteria are present in your water, it tells you that other disease causing organisms may be in your water supply.
The presence coliform bacteria in a water sample may mean that surface water has washed contaminants into the well.
E Coli
E Coli bacteria live in the intestines of humans and warm blooded animals.
There are many different types of these bacteria that can make you very sick.
If any amount of E Coli bacteria is found in a water sample, human sewage or animal feces has contaminated the water supply.
Ultra Violet Technology works by the ultra violet ray projected from the lamp to penetrate the water and killing live forms of bacteria including e coli and coliforms.
UV treatment is effective against microbial contamination and provides highly effective disinfection by neutralizing harmful microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, protozoa, giardia, and cryptosporidium.
Why Well Water Homes Need a UV System
If your home uses a private well, your water does not go through a municipal treatment system.
That means you are responsible for ensuring it is safe to drink.
While well water can often look and taste clean, it may still contain harmful microorganisms that are invisible to the eye.
A UV (ultraviolet) disinfection system provides an important final line of defense, helping protect your household from bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens that can occasionally enter groundwater.
The Hidden Risks in Well Water
Unlike city water, private wells are not continuously monitored or treated.
Contamination can occur in several ways, including:
Surface water entering the well after heavy rainfall
Nearby septic systems affecting groundwater
Shifts in soil or seasonal groundwater changes
Small cracks or wear in well components
Even when water appears clear, it can still carry microorganisms such as E. coli, Giardia, or Cryptosporidium.

How UV Filtration Works
A UV water treatment system disinfects your well water by exposing it to ultraviolet light as water enters your home.
The UV light disrupts the DNA of harmful microorganisms, preventing bacteria, viruses, and parasites from reproducing or causing illness.
For Ontario well water homeowners, UV disinfection systems provide a reliable, chemical-free way to improve drinking water safety without affecting taste, smell, or water quality.
The process works instantly and continuously, delivering protection every time you turn on the tap.
At Burlington Water Tech, we install UV systems designed specifically for private well water treatment in Ontario homes.

The Final Step in a Complete Well Water Treatment System
Ultraviolet Sterilization is most effective when installed as the final stage of a complete well water filtration system.
Before water reaches the UV chamber, it is typically treated with sediment filters, iron filters, or water softeners to improve clarity and overall water quality.
Once properly filtered, the UV system provides the final barrier against biological contaminants commonly found in Ontario well water supplies.
This multi-stage approach helps protect your home from:
-
Bacteria including E. coli
-
Viruses and microorganisms
-
Surface water contamination
-
Seasonal groundwater changes
-
Unsafe drinking water caused by heavy rainfall or flooding
For homeowners using private wells, UV water treatment is one of the most effective solutions for long-term water safety.

When a water sample shows a certain level of the presence of ecoli and coliform bacteria, it is considered unsafe to drink until the problem is corrected.
The bacteria could possibly pose a health risk. The water should not be used for drinking until the problem has been found and corrected.
An alternate drinking water supply should be used.
