andy Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Dunno. I'd be inclined to ask what problem you are trying to solve -- it doesn't sound like you *have* a problem, so why spend money to "solve" it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CA2OR Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Bump Being proactive isn't a bad habit IMO, could be costly though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason7504 Posted February 28, 2009 Author Share Posted February 28, 2009 i can get one for $50..do you think it would be worth it though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowman Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 I think a small ozone reactor would be better than the uv sterilizer. Too many things to worry about with the uv, like bulbs, flow, cleaning. JME 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason7504 Posted February 28, 2009 Author Share Posted February 28, 2009 but ive heard some negative stuff about using ozone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CA2OR Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 I was under the impression that UV sterilizers were only good. Can you shed some light on the downfalls please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
