Yes Deb the pump is 100% enough. The more slightly the flow rate of a UV C, the more effective is the degermination.


Nevertheless, this is a relatively slightly understandable logic. The longer the ultraviolet light on bacteria and germs can work, ever better it can eliminate them. The faster the water by the lamp flows the less time the light has an effect on the germs, the less effect has it.
