This inline unit is in my water-system purchases. Its electrical supply and pipe connections put it at the intersection of two systems that needed space in the interior plan.
I bought VerterPure VP6 UV-C Water Unit as part of my camper van equipment.

Where it fits my build
My Day 87 plan put the body openings ahead of the aluminum framing, flooring and wall panels. I specifically included the shower drain and the openings for three water tanks in that order of work.
I removed cargo tie-down hardware to leave mounting points for the extrusion framing, and removed door trim for the later insulation and paneling. SketchUp helped me plan how those separate jobs would fit together.

My build notes
The useful part of this diary entry is the sequence. I wanted to finish the drilling while the interior metal was bare, so later work would not mean opening finished surfaces again.
The photographs show my preceding floor-preparation session. Sweeping, washing and removing residue created the starting point for the interior work I described next.
I planned the openings and mounting access before enclosing the interior.
Alternative products
Two alternatives to compare
The VerterPure VP2 is a smaller twelve-volt LED unit. The iSpring UVF11A uses an eleven-watt lamp and a 110-volt supply, so the comparison involves both the treatment-unit format and its power arrangement.
VerterPure VP2 UV-C Water Unit
The VerterPure VP2 uses an inline UV-C LED chamber powered by twelve-volt DC. Automatic switching controls the unit as water flows through it.
The iSpring UVF11A is an inline ultraviolet unit with a stainless-steel chamber and automatic switching. It uses an eleven-watt lamp and a 110-volt electrical supply.
