Aqua Ultraviolet – 25 Watt Classic UV Sterilizer, 2" (Black) with Wiper

Overview

Reliable, compact UV-C sterilizer for ponds and aquariums. This Classic 25W model with 2" slip ports adds a manual wiper to help keep the quartz sleeve clear between services—great for polishing loops, QT systems, and modest displays.

Key Features

  • Classic housing with 2" slip inlet/outlet for easy high-flow plumbing

  • Single low-pressure 25W UV-C lamp for algae/bacteria/protozoa control

  • Integrated manual wiper helps maintain sleeve clarity and consistent UV output

  • Weather-resistant (non-submersible) body for indoor or protected outdoor installs

  • Clear end cap shows lamp-on status; quick access for lamp/sleeve changes

Note: Wipers are not recommended for saltwater use; using a wiper on saltwater can void the wiper warranty. Many marine installs choose the non-wiper variant and clean the sleeve during lamp changes.
