I’ve had mines less than a year. The uv lamp makes a “whizz sound for a second and then stops. No noise. No light. Does the bulb needs to be replaced ? Is it normal for it to die in 9 mths?

I’ve had my unit for over 7 years, I was getting ready to replace it. Thanks so much, I’m not a handy person and I’m really pleased to see that I could fix this problem with your helpful advice!

Do UV bulbs need changing on a yearly basis or are they still good if giving out light?
