Go-Go-Gadget-UV!

Ultraviolet sterilizers combat green water algae growth and parasites. To best achieve this goal, sterilizers need to be paired with the appropriate flow rate. Algae growth is best controlled with longer exposure time to the UV rays. The Oase, LifeGard, and Danner line of UV sterilizers offers many useful features to simplify installation. The Danner are submergible sterilizers can be used in any brand and any size pond skimmers. This UV’s rotating union creates many different configurations to accommodate different skimmer shapes and sizes. The adjustable three way valve allows pond owners to control the flow of water entering the sterilizer. This control permits the appropriate water flow to be sent through the UV unit, even with a very powerful pump.

This UV unit is designed to attach directly to the pump inside the skimmer box, but can also be installed as a traditional in-line unit, either in or out of the pond. The Danner units are the only fully- submergible sterilizers on the market. They are available in 10 (DA7104), 20 (DA7105), and 40 (DA7106) watt sizes for different size ponds.
