About

About Silver Bullet:

Silver Bullet™s patented technology harnesses nature™s own process to condition water and improve its performance. Classified as an Advanced Oxidation Process (AOP), Silver Bullet generates singlet oxygen atoms which are diffused into water, forming highly reactive hydroxyl and oxygen free radicals. AOPs are recognized by the EPA as an effective and safe water disinfection method and hydroxyl radicals are considered to be the strongest oxidants that can be applied in water.

Through Silver Bullet Water Treatment™s AOP, air from the surrounding environment is pulled into the Silver Bullet sleeves using pumps. This air passes through the sleeves containing UV lamps and other patented components. The ambient air is modified as it passes through the sleeves, creating negatively charged oxygen atoms, which are diffused into water (note that water never passes through the system and it does not directly treat the water with UV light).

As the singlet oxygen atoms hit the water, they interact with water molecules and form highly reactive hydroxyl and oxygen radicals (OH¢ and O¢). The hydroxyl and oxygen radicals trigger various chemical reactions oxidizing minerals and contaminants in water, killing bacteria, and breaking down calcium buildup to remove and prevent scaling. Some oxygen radicals combine with water molecules (H2O) to create H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide), a lasting and non-toxic biocide. The Silver Bullet system is fully redundant for fail-safe, continuous operation, and retrofits into any building in less than a day.
