Looking at getting a UV. https://pentairaes.com/smart-uv-high-output-sterilizers.html

The e150s is the one I am looking at.

Curious for any opinions or reviews - looks like you only need to access one end for replacing the bulbs and serving the unit. The others I looked at required access to both ends and the wider dimensions would make for a difficult fit.
 
I use that model on a few aquaculture systems. Its a good unit and its easy to ge replacement parts for. You only need access to one end to change the bulb and quartz sleeze. The other end is a non-removable clear plastic window to which allows you to easliy see if the bulbs working
 
I have an Emperor aquatics(Bought by Pentair) 80watt HO which is the same unit. It has performed really well and is easy to maintain. Replacement parts are easy to get and bulb access is easy from the one side.
