Leaf Home’s Ultraviolet (UV) Water Purification System uses UV-C light to destroy bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms in your home’s water. Installed alongside your existing filtration setup, it provides chemical-free protection against waterborne pathogens for safer, cleaner water at every tap.

The system uses a UV-C lamp inside a stainless-steel chamber. As water passes through, the light breaks down the DNA of microorganisms, making them harmless — without adding chemicals or changing taste. A built-in 5-micron sediment filter removes particles that could block UV exposure, ensuring maximum disinfection.
The UV system is installed after your main filtration equipment — such as sediment or carbon filters — to ensure clear water reaches the UV light. It’s especially useful for well water homes or areas prone to biological contamination. Installation is handled by Leaf Home’s trained professionals for optimal safety and efficiency.
This UV system is ideal for homeowners on private wells who want protection from bacteria and viruses that may enter water through soil or runoff. It’s also valuable for city water users seeking an added safeguard against microbial contamination or chlorine-resistant organisms like Cryptosporidium and Giardia.
