FAQs
What is the maximum pond size for this filter?

How often should I backflush the filter?
The frequency of backflushing depends on your pond's conditions, but it is typically recommended weekly or bi-weekly to remove accumulated sludge and maintain efficiency.
Do I need to replace the filter media?
The filter media, including brushes and foam cartridges, are designed for longevity. They should be cleaned periodically in pond water. Replacement is only necessary if they become irreparably damaged.
Is the UVC unit replaceable?
Yes, the UVC bulb and quartz sleeve are replaceable parts and should be maintained annually for optimal performance.
Can this filter be partially buried?

What is the power consumption of the UVC unit?

What is the maximum flow rate recommended for the pond pump?

Troubleshooting
Filter is not clearing the water
Ensure the pump flow rate is within the recommended range. Clean the filter media and perform a backflush. Check that the UVC bulb is operational.
Water is still green after installation
Verify the 80-watt UVC is switched on and functioning. Clean the UVC quartz sleeve. Allow sufficient time for the UVC to work, especially in initial setup or after heavy algae blooms.
Low water flow from the filter outlet
Check for blockages in the inlet hose, filter media, or outlet pipes. Perform a thorough backflush of the filter. Ensure the pond pump is clean and operating at full capacity.
Backflush system is not working effectively
Ensure all connections are secure. Check for any internal obstructions within the backflush mechanism. Refer to the user manual for specific backflush procedures.
