Chicago Faucets' point-of-use water treatment systems
The new point-of-use water treatment system from Chicago Faucets adds a secondary defense to assist building water disinfection, the company notes. Chicago Faucets BioArmor, a UV-C point-of-use water treatment system helps reduce the number of dangerous microorganisms such as Legionella in building water systems.
As part of a building’s water disinfection program, BioArmor, with UV-C LED technology, provides secondary water treatment at a hand washing sink or other dispenser. BioArmor attacks pathogens using UV-C light to penetrate cells and render them microbiologically inactive. When water flow is detected, it delivers instant full-intensity power — without heat transfer — to disinfect the water.
