parisitic cost in a 168 proc cooler system?

I can think of no better application for a UV sterilizer than a large (168 processor) W/C system. The comparative bulk of the device becomes small, the heat input becomes negligible, the potential benefit is escallated WRT time saved cleaning such a massive system, and the relative cost even becomes more practical. As far as lifespan of the bulb -I only turn mine on occasionally and then leave it on for a few days. I did run it constantly for the first few weeks.

Of course I am trying to justify mine (UV Clarifier) for use with a single PC...I originally desired a set up and forget system, but mine has spent more time "in-Progress" than "in-Operation"
