Genesis Whole House Water Filtration Systems are designed to filter all the water that enters your house for less than 1/2 cent per gallon. Now, with our state-of-the-art six stage filtration system, all the water that enters your house - to include the water that enters your kitchen, bathrooms, showers, laundry room, bars, etc. - will be clear and good tasting. Contaminants like lead, chlorine, Mercury, Lindane, TCE, herbicides, pesticides, and many VOC's will be reduced well below Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) standards. With the added protection of our Microbiological Reduction Filter, a wide range of viruses, bacteria, and cysts will be killed, thereby, protecting you and your family from potential sickness and even death.

Why U.V. Protection?

When microbiological problems are present, the most important stage in water filtration is the disinfection process, and UV disinfection is a tested and proven method of providing safe drinking water without adding potentially harmful chemicals. For effective use of a UV filter it must used in conjunction with a Genesis carbon based filter (this combination provides you with the most effective filtration system) or a Genesis Sediment filter.

Genesis provides two types of UV filters - High flow filters for Point-of-Entry (Whole House) applications and Low Flow filters for Point-of-Use applications. The following chart defines the filter best suited for your microbiological protection.

How Does It Work?

In Genesis UV systems, the lamp is centered within a protective quartz sleeve in the unit's precisely engineered and polished stainless steel disinfection chamber.

This ensures even distribution of the UV energy to all of the water that passes through the unit.

Any harmful organisms are bombarded with a lethal dose of UV energy, two-times the Federal dosage requirements.

Some of the most dangerous pathogens found in water:

Group Kind Disease
Bacteria Coliforms Fever, intestinal disease
  Salmonella Typhoid fever
  Vibrio Cholera
  Legionella Pneumonia
Viruses Hepatitis A Hepatitis
  Polio Polio
Parasites Cryptosporidia Cryptosporidiosis
  Giardia Beaver fever
  Amoeba Amebiasis
