It can sometimes be a little difficult to to imagine the size of a UV unit and while you'll see the dimensions of them on our product page, that's not always helpful and/or available on other websites. So how big are UV systems? The smallest are around the size of a shoe (an adult shoe if you want to be more specific) and the biggest ones are perhaps as big as a car. I would say "but not as heavy" but I'm pretty sure they would be once they're filled up with water. They're impressive to look with all the UV lamps that those systems use and like with all things in life, cable management is a must! 

For the typical family home, the system will often be around the size of a french baguette, but no longer, they seem quite long in my head. For a commercial/ light industrial system you'd be looking at something like a golf club bag or a box for a Christmas tree kind of size. 

As I mentioned earlier, small systems tend not to have a big weight difference between being empty and full, but that changes once you get to the larger whole house UV systems. Then you have to watch out for things like stud-work or older walls where bearing extra weight isn't ideal. 

If you're unsure about this for any of your systems then feel free to get in touch with us, we'll be happy to help.
