@AquaNerd, I got a question if you have the 3" body 40w and you want to upgrade to 90w can you just buy the replacement Pro-Max 90w UV Sterilizer Ballast and use the same configuration or do you have to buy the whole unit for 90w. Any thoughts on this!

Always,

Jay
Sorry but I don't have an answer for you on that one. I would give Lifegard and call to see if that is possible.

The housings are the same diameter, however the 90w housing and bulb are longer than the 40w. So no, you can not switch out the bulb and power supply to make your 40w a 90w
