Collection: UV Replacement Quartz Sleeves

A quartz sleeve is a clear glass tube that surrounds the UV lamp inside your water treatment system. It protects the lamp from coming into direct contact with water while allowing powerful UV light to pass through for disinfection. This ensures your system continues to eliminate harmful bacteria and viruses safely and effectively.

Remove the sleeve carefully and wipe it using a soft, lint-free cloth with white vinegar or a mild acid solution to dissolve any limescale deposits. Avoid using abrasive materials or detergents, as they can scratch the glass and reduce the efficiency of your UV disinfection system.

If the sleeve looks stained, cloudy, scratched, or cracked, it should be replaced immediately. Even slight cloudiness can reduce UV transmission and compromise water safety. Always inspect the sleeve whenever you change the UV lamp — typically once a year.
