Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How does the ClearTronic UV clarifier work?
A: The ClearTronic uses ultraviolet light to eliminate free-floating algae, bacteria, and other microorganisms as water passes through the unit. This helps prevent green water, reduces cloudiness, and minimizes disease-causing pathogens. It works in-line with your existing filter or pump system for continuous water treatment.
Q: How often do I need to replace the UV bulb?
A: UV bulbs typically need replacement every 6-12 months, depending on usage. The convenient indicator light on the ClearTronic lets you monitor bulb effectiveness without opening the unit. When it's time for a change, the quick-release feature makes bulb replacement fast and easy.
Q: Can I use this with my existing canister filter?
A: Absolutely! The ClearTronic is designed for external use and connects in-line with your existing filtration system using the included 5/8 inch (16mm) tubing fittings. It works perfectly with canister filters, external pumps, or any system that circulates water through tubing.
