Everything the CUV-209 needs for its annual service, in one delivery. Lamp, quartz sleeve and seals are all wear parts on the same yearly cycle. Bought separately they arrive as three orders in three parcels, and the seals are the part everyone forgets until the unit leaks.

Contains

  • 1 x AllPondSolutions 9w PLS UV bulb, 163mm, 2 pin
  • 1 x CUV-209 replacement quartz sleeve
  • 1 x CUV-2 O-ring set

Cheaper than buying the parts separately, and it all arrives together rather than as three parcels.

Lamp specification

  • 9w PLS germicidal UV-C lamp
  • 163mm overall length
  • 2 pin fitting
  • Average lifespan approximately 9,000 hours

Fits: AllPondSolutions CUV-209 UV steriliser, pond or aquarium.

When to replace the lamp

A UV bulb stops working long before it stops glowing. The visible light remains while the invisible UV-C output fades, so a lamp that still lights up can be doing nothing for your water.

  • Sterilisation: replace every 6 months (approximately 4,000 hours)
  • Pond or aquarium clarification: replace every 12 months (approximately 8,000 hours)

Clean or replace the quartz sleeve at every lamp change - limescale and biofilm on the sleeve block UV-C just as effectively as a dead bulb does. Full step by step in our UV Steriliser Maintenance Guide.

Fitting. Isolate the power supply before opening the unit. Lightly lubricate the O-rings with a silicone-based lubricant on reassembly to keep the seal watertight.

How often should I replace the UV bulb?

Every 6 to 12 months. UV output falls away long before the lamp stops lighting up, so a bulb that still glows may be doing very little. Most pond keepers fit a new one at the start of each season.

Do I need a new quartz sleeve as well?

The sleeve is what the UV light has to pass through. Over a season it scales and clouds, and a dull sleeve blocks the output of even a brand new bulb. Replacing both together is the only way to restore full performance.

Will this kit fit my unit?

Every service kit is model-specific. Check that the model number printed on your unit's ballast label matches the model named in the title above. If it does not, browse our full range of UV service kits to find the right one.

How is the kit delivered?

As one parcel containing every part. Your order confirmation and delivery note list each component separately, so you can check nothing is missing on arrival.

Can I fit it myself?

Yes. Isolate the power first, unscrew the housing, withdraw the old sleeve and bulb, fit the new seals and reassemble. Avoid touching the glass of the new bulb with bare fingers, as skin oils shorten its life.
