UV water treatment is easy to misunderstand because it looks clean and technical. A lamp inside a chamber can be a useful microbiological treatment stage when the water is clear, the unit is sized correctly, power is reliable, and maintenance actually happens. It is not a filter for lead, PFAS, nitrates, arsenic, hardness, sediment, chlorine taste, or every unknown problem in a glass.
