Description
The IceCap Replacement UV Quartz Sleeve is a maintenance part designed to restore full sterilization output to IceCap UV sterilizers. Over time, mineral deposits accumulate on the quartz sleeve and reduce UV transmission through the water column. Replacing the sleeve approximately once per year — alongside a fresh UV lamp — brings the unit back to factory-level performance. This is a straightforward, low-cost way to extend the service life of your existing sterilizer rather than replacing the full unit.

UV sterilizers depend on unobstructed light transmission to be effective. The quartz sleeve sits between the UV lamp and the water, and as mineral deposits and biofilm accumulate on its surface, an increasing percentage of UV energy is blocked before it ever reaches the water. The result is a sterilizer that runs but underperforms — pathogens, free-floating algae, and parasites pass through without adequate UV exposure.

Replacing the quartz sleeve on an annual maintenance cycle is one of the simplest ways to ensure your IceCap UV sterilizer continues to function as intended. Paired with a new UV lamp — which also loses output intensity over time regardless of visible clarity — a sleeve replacement effectively resets the unit to like-new performance without the cost of a full replacement.

This sleeve is a direct replacement part for compatible IceCap UV sterilizers. Verify compatibility with your specific IceCap UV model before ordering. Handle with care — quartz sleeves are fragile, and oils from skin contact can create hot spots when the lamp is energized, so use clean gloves or a lint-free cloth during installation. As a safety reminder, never look directly at an operating UV lamp, as exposure can cause serious eye damage.

Overview

Restore. Maintain. Sterilize.

Annual replacement of the quartz sleeve is the single most effective maintenance step for keeping your IceCap UV sterilizer running at full capacity.
