Including filter system and high-performance Waterborne Viruses filter.
Waterborne viruses can get into household supplies when sewage, animal waste, or stressed treatment systems affect a source, and you usually won’t see, taste, or smell them. In University Park and nearby Miami-Dade neighborhoods, many homeowners prefer an added layer of protection because these microscopic viruses can spread through water used for drinking, cooking, and brushing teeth.
Unlike visible sediment or taste-and-odor problems, viruses are tiny and may pass through filters designed only to catch particles; they’re also different from larger bacteria. For families in University Park who want reliable protection across the whole house, it’s best to consider treatment options sized and chosen to reduce microbes right where the water enters your property.
For whole-house defense against waterborne viruses, a UV disinfection system is the single most effective treatment to install at the main service line. UV systems shine ultraviolet light through a sealed chamber as water flows, inactivating viruses without adding chemicals, and provide continuous treatment for every tap in your University Park home.
UV systems perform best when water is clear, so they’re frequently paired with a prefilter to remove sediment that could shield microbes from the light. Proper sizing for your home’s flow rate and routine lamp and sleeve maintenance are important—especially in hard Miami-Dade water where mineral scale is common—to keep a whole-house UV unit working correctly for University Park households.
