December 2017: DEL renamed their Solar Eclipse to DEL AOP 50 (and the smaller version DEL AOP 25) If you have a Solar Eclipse, this lamp will work for you!
Maintaining your DEL Ozone AOP 50/Solar Eclipse is important for your pool water, and for the lifespan of the system. Every 18 months (1.5 years) replace the AOP 50/Solar Eclipse's UV Germicidal Lamps.
Additionally, when the Quartz Tubes which house the UV Lamps becomes dirty, the ability to transmit UV rays from the Lamp are diminished. Every 6 months, clean both UV Lamps' Quartz Tubes. Download instructions below in our RESOURCE CENTER.
There are several part numbers out there, so to clarify which one your manual shows vs. which one you actually need:
ENVIRONMENTAL NOTICE: Hg-Lamp CONTAINS MERCURY. Manage in accordance with disposal laws. See www.lamprecycle.org. Due to stricter laws not allowing UV bulbs to ship via US Postal Service, they will be shipped using UPS.

Found exactly what I needed for one of the best prices around. Jen was very communicative and shipped the parts quickly. Will use this site again.

Got 2 new UV lamps to change out the original lamps. Installations of the lamps are very straight forward. Remember to not touch the UV bulbs with your hands, wear clean gloves during installation. Ms. Engelmeier with Love Your Hot Tub.com is wonderful in assisting me with my order. I did encountered shipping delays due to the COVID 19 causing supply issues with the UV lamps.

the products were fine, but the special sauce here is the owner, Jennifer Engelmyer. She is special, very engaged, very helpful. She actually coached me how best to approach the manufacturer to get a warranty replacement [out of warranty] even though it meant that if i were succesful she would lose a sale.She spent a long time on telephone talking me through my many issues on a product she didn't sell me. This is a good place to do business!
