UV vs. Chemical Well-Water Disinfection

UV treats water as it passes the lamp and typically needs clear water, correct flow, reliable power, lamp maintenance, and monitoring. Chemical disinfection may provide residual protection but requires dosing, contact time, storage, and management. Neither approach fixes a damaged well or contamination pathway. Testing and sanitary inspection should guide the decision.
