Yes you can turn it off, ours like Seaburngirls had broken and we,ve had a clear pond. We do leave the filter running all year round.
Our instruction booklet for the UV filter says not to expose it to frost (the UV that is).

Yes, i always turned mine off on my koi pond around October time. I replaced the bulb (they only have a 6 month life) every march and turned it back on then.
Remember to turn just the UV off, not the actual filter.
