Aqua Otter installs UV water purification systems in homes and businesses across Indiana and Michigan. Unlike chemical disinfection, UV light at 254 nanometers permanently disrupts the DNA of bacteria, viruses, and protozoan cysts before any water reaches your tap. Every Aqua Otter UV system carries NSF/ANSI 55 Class A certification and delivers a minimum 40 mJ/cm² UV dose, the standard required to eliminate 99.99% of pathogens including E. coli, Giardia, Cryptosporidium, Legionella, and Norovirus. Nothing is added to your water at any point: no chlorine, no salt, no disinfection byproducts. We size each system to your property's flow rate so that every drop receives the full germicidal dose. With hundreds of installations across Indiana and Michigan, our teams carry the equipment, hardware, and field experience to complete most UV installations in a single visit.

How UV light destroys
pathogens in your water.
Water flows through the UV chamber
All water entering your home passes through a stainless steel chamber housing a germicidal UV lamp. The chamber is sized to ensure every drop receives the full required UV dose.
UV light at 254nm disrupts DNA
The lamp emits ultraviolet light at 254 nanometers, the precise wavelength that penetrates the cell walls of bacteria, viruses, and protozoan cysts and permanently destroys their DNA.
Pathogens cannot replicate or infect
Organisms with disrupted DNA cannot reproduce or cause infection. They remain as inert particles, completely harmless. No chemicals are added at any point in the process.
Inside the UV Purification: every part explained
Inside UV purification. A stainless steel chamber on the main line with a germicidal lamp running down the middle of it. No chemicals go in and nothing is added to your water at any point. Keep scrolling to go inside it. 99.99% of bacteria and viruses. NSF/ANSI 55 certified. Zero additives.
Every drop gets the dose. All water entering your home passes through the chamber, flowing around a clear quartz sleeve that holds the lamp. The chamber is sized so that every drop receives the full required UV dose on its way through. Whole home. Quartz sleeve. Full required dose.
The germicidal lamp. The lamp emits ultraviolet light at 254 nanometers, the precise wavelength that penetrates the cell walls of bacteria, viruses, and protozoan cysts and permanently destroys their DNA. Organisms with disrupted DNA cannot reproduce or cause infection. E. coli log 6. Giardia and crypto. No chlorine needed.
Disinfection without chemistry. Light does the work, so nothing is dosed and nothing reacts. That means no disinfection byproducts, no taste or odor added, and no chemistry to manage. The lamp runs continuously and is changed once a year. 0 disinfection byproducts. No taste or odor added. Installed by Aqua Otter.
