It really isn't a question of which is better. Both will work to do virtually the same thing however Ozonation will also treat the bottle or the container and free it of impurities. UV will not.
You should start with a reverse osmosis system (RO) prior to either of these treatment.
Technology has improved from simple sand filters, to osmosis, to UV baths, to ozonation. Each improvement has lead to better quality tap water.
Packaged drinking water is usually spring water that has been filtered in a plant and then bottled. Water is processed through :- 1. Prefilteration - usually sand-carbon filter 2. Membrane Filteration - Reverse Osmosis Technique 3. Post Filteration :- Microfilters + Ultraviolet [ UV ] treatment 4. Some times Ozonation too Then it is Bottled OR put in Jars or pouches, packaged, hence packaged drinking water. ISI should be got for this, which is issued by the B.I.S.

Water can be purified in 10 different ways, including boiling, filtration, distillation, chlorination, UV treatment, reverse osmosis, activated carbon adsorption, ion exchange, ozonation, and chemical treatment.
yes it is, it purifies the water straight from your mains, and leaves all the good minerals in the water and reduces chlorine and other contaminants, it also uses a UV light to ensure bacteria free drinking water. using a filter system that purifies the tap water is better than using bottled water since there are no leftovers (plastic bottles are bad for the environment - regardless of whether the t-6 is better or not)
reverse Osmosis will remove all impurities from water but UV exposure will only kill bacteria in the water it will not remove impurities such as chlorine or other potentially harmful chemicals.
Tanning is more effective when your skin is dry, as water can act as a barrier to UV rays from the sun.
UV water purification does not have any known links to causing cancer. UV light is used to disinfect water by inactivating harmful microorganisms, but it does not introduce any carcinogenic substances into the water. UV water purification is considered a safe and effective method for treating water.
Yes, water that has been treated with UV light is safe to drink as the UV light effectively kills harmful microorganisms present in the water.
Water absorbs UV rays primarily due to its molecular structure, which allows it to vibrate and transition to higher energy states when exposed to ultraviolet radiation. The specific bonding and arrangement of hydrogen and oxygen atoms in water molecules facilitate the absorption of UV light, particularly in the UV-C and UV-B ranges. This absorption helps protect aquatic ecosystems from harmful UV radiation, but it also means that UV penetration in water decreases with depth. Consequently, the effectiveness of UV light decreases as it travels through water, limiting its reach in aquatic environments.
UV light is not necessary for a water filter to work effectively, but it can be a helpful additional feature for killing bacteria and viruses in the water. UV light can provide an extra layer of protection in ensuring that the water is safe to drink.
AquaSure Aquaflow Dx is a multi stage UV water purifier whereas AquaSure Storage UV is a 4 stage UV electric water purifier.
The UV rays of the sun do not get magnified in water, but the part of you that is out of the water can get burned faster than if you were on dry land. This is because the water's surface reflects the radiation.
