Does this model not have carbon - Have checked Amway site and the model number 10-0189 specifies carbon and UV light ?

The system that I have (model 10-0185) has a cartridge which consists of both a carbon block and a UV lamp. It is replaceable (part# 10-0186)

The filter that came with unit does not remove carbon. The ap 817 is the filter that reduces carbon.

Nope!It is a standard off-the-shelf cartridge, available at home depot or wal-mart.I have already replaced the carbons once.Hope this helps.

Not the one I purchased. I remover the power plug and bypassed that filter. I should have returned it as the taste of the water was not good through the UV stage,but I did not bother too after reading the reviews. If you don't need UV for your water buy the 6 stage as I bought this unit and probably don't have a UV issue with our County water department. Good luck and have plenty time for following the installation instructions.

The specs say that is has UV protection however I am unsure how to tell exactly.

No because there is no UV protection in product description or advertised as such

The one I bought was not UV, although Tetra does have the ability to use one with it. I'm not really an authority, but if you are interested, you can go to their website to see the different models and what they include.

UV lights of a certain wavelength emit ozone, so it's a question you should ask of anything involving UV. If the light wavelength is below 200 nm, it generates ozone. The good news is, above 200 nm converts ozone back to oxygen. The light used in AC4825 and AC5000 both are 253.7 nm, so they emit no ozone.

I don't know. I looked for specs but couldn't find anything. To me, it does not appear to have a jacket that could be 'officially' rated for UV light (sunlight) protection nor direct underground burial.All that said, I've used cable similar to this for outdoor speakers and it lasted for years. It was for my personal use and not a professional installation.

Hody , I use mine indoors so I don`t have any experience with UV ... it is a bright yellow , so better in the sun than black or grey chords . I love my US Wire product !

Cnd is not formulated to use with led lights. Further research onlibe had said it only cures with uv lamps.

Dear Lindy, This data is on the description of the unit. Please look that up or type in the unit name and go to the company that makes it and they will have the data you want. Understand it is a UV light. You will order this from the company.

I have not turned mine on yet this year, but the vapor is normal since it is warm vapor. I don't believe you see the UV light. There is an indicator light on the front that when lite you need to replace the UV light. (see page 4 of the instructions). I had my original for 5 years and never had to replace the light. Hope this helps.

There is no UV light emitted by the product. UV light starts at 400nm and below, whereas the product puts out light from the 590nm to 880nm range, well above the UV spectrum. Goggles are included with the product and MUST be used at all times, since the light is very bright.

UV-C bulbs do not produce ozone, this is true for any UV-C based system not just this brand.
