How it Works:
Mechanical Filtration:
This first stage of filtering removes suspended debris. Water is pumped into the filters and passes through separate layers of filter media — coarse and fine layers — to effectively remove all sizes of unwanted debris.
UV Clarification:
The final filtering stage uses Ultra-Violet light to kill any remaining free floating algae as the water passes through the filter back to your pond.
Cleaning Your Filter:
Flushing the filter to remove dirt and debris is as easy as shutting down the pump, rotating the valve from filter to flush, and turning the pump back on for as long as it takes for the water to run clear. When the water runs clear, you can stop back flushing and return to normal operation.
Using the Handle to Purge Filters:
Pumping the handle while back-washing compresses the filters for an efficient cleaning, while not compromising your existing beneficial bacteria. This bacteria naturally converts harmful ammonia and other wastes into healthy nitrates that fertilize aquatic plants and support a healthy pond environment.
- Maximum pond size is 4,000 gallons and 3,000 gallon fish ponds. Pump flow rates: 2,000 – 4,100 gallons per hour. Multi-Stage Mechanical Filtration removes coarse And fine floating particulates.
- Biological Filtration promotes the growth of beneficial bacteria which converts Ammonia and harmful waste into healthy Nitrates that promote a healthy pond environment.
- Bult-in clarifier with 36 watt UV bulb fills free floating algae. Glowing monitor indicates UV light is functioning properly. Visible indicator signals when pressure filter requires backwashing.
- Heavy duty, watertight housing is easily accessible for filter maintenance. Can be partially buried to conceal filter.
- Inlet/outlet barbs 1″ to 1.5″ accept multiple hose sizes. 120 Volts, 60 Hz. 23′ Power cord.
