Philips 325126 9-watt PL-S TUV Germicidal with 2-Pin Base Light Bulb

I purchased this as a replacement germicidal bulb for our air purification unit. The first bulb was difficult to insert in the holder (I managed to break the bulb; my error). I ordered a second bulb and with greater care accomplished the installation. Both bulbs were received within two business days (in good condition) and was the best price I found.

Good price

Perfect for my aerus beyond air cleaner. Exact replacement, same as the original. I hope it lasts longer than the original bulb, which only lasted about 6 months. This is a good value considering most aerus dealers want over 45 dollars for it.

Fit and worked perfectly and a great deal compared to what they cost at retail store, perfect as described!

The bulb looks exactly like the bulbs in my HVSC duct intended to help purify the air. However it requires a different power source. It looks exactly and plugs into the socket exactly but is simply the wrong bulb.

Just what I was looking for

A very good price, verses what they charge at Aerus Electrolux for similar product. This is used for my Guardian Air air purifier. Does help clean the air, and prevent colds. Definitely recommend.

At one time Philips was a good brand and with great quality, performance, and products Philips made were always reliable, and with a reasonable price. After my experience with this bulb and a couple of Philips other products, I will not waste anymore time or anything on any other Philips products. Compared this bulb against a coralife turbo twist 3x 9 watt bulb, Philips should be embarrassed about this product, really.

Our backyard pond had turned pretty green. Drained as best I could and refilled it but the water still wasn’t clear. Installed a new Phillips 9watt UV bulb and within a couple weeks the water is crystal clear. Unbelievable but the bulb does what it’s supposed to do. Thanks Phillips!

It does not seem to control my algae very well despite water changes very 8 days though my fish seem healthy (no diseases) so it may be helping with disease control. Hard to tell
