Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility: This foam set is specifically designed for the Oase Filtoclear 12000 pressure filter. Ensure you have this model before purchasing.
Setup:
- Turn off and unplug your Oase Filtoclear 12000.
- Open the filter housing according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- Remove the old foam pads.
- Insert the new Oase replacement foam pads, ensuring they are correctly positioned within the filter.
- Close and secure the filter housing.
- Reconnect power and restart the filter.
Care: The foam pads themselves do not require special care beyond their periodic replacement. However, the filter unit should be cleaned externally. When cleaning the foam pads during maintenance, rinse them gently in a bucket of pond water to preserve beneficial bacteria. Avoid using tap water, as chlorine can harm these microorganisms. Regular cleaning of the filter housing is also recommended.
