Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, first ensure the FiltoClear 3000 unit is powered off and isolated from the pond pump. Carefully open the filter canister, remove the existing filter media stack, and extract the old mesh tube. Slide the new 145mm tube into the designated central position, re-seat the foam or media, and seal the canister.
Compatibility check: This specific part is exclusively for the FiltoClear 3000. Do not attempt to use this with the FiltoClear 11000 or 15000 models, as the dimensions will not align, potentially causing leaks or pump strain. Keep the tube free of heavy biofilm buildup by rinsing during seasonal filter cleanings to prolong its lifespan.
