GrowoniX 1 GPM UV Replacement Lamp for the UV-1 Sterilizer
The GrowoniX 1 GPM UV replacement lamp is the germicidal UV-C bulb that keeps a UV-1 sterilizer killing the 99.9% of micro-organisms it was built to handle. Output fades before the bulb dies. That is why GrowoniX rates the lamp for roughly 8,000 hours and recommends a yearly swap. It runs inside the UV-1's 10–17W ballast range on standard 110–120V power, and you handle the new bulb with gloves so skin oils do not leave hot spots that shorten lamp life.
Keeping Reservoir Water Clean with a UV-C Germicidal Lamp
Slide the four-pin lamp into the existing quartz sleeve, seat the socket, and the 254 nm UV-C output goes back to scrambling pathogen DNA as water passes through at up to 1 GPM and 116 psi. It belongs inline on the UV-1 after an RO or sediment stage, where the water is already clear enough for the light to work. One caveat worth planning around: UV-C knocks back beneficial microbes too, so dose those back in downstream of the sterilizer.
Key Features
- 8,000-Hour Lamp Life: Rated for about a year of continuous duty, with a yearly swap keeping germicidal output at full strength.
- UV-C Germicidal Output: Emits in the 254 nm band that damages microbial DNA and stops pathogens from reproducing.
- Sized for the UV-1 (1 GPM): Matches the sterilizer's 10–17W ballast input and 116 psi pressure rating.
- Four-Pin Drop-In Fit: Seats into the existing quartz sleeve and socket with no hardware changes.
- Handle-With-Gloves Glass: Keeping skin oils off the bulb prevents the hot spots that cause early failure.
