Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is straightforward as this cage is a direct replacement for the factory-fitted part. To install, simply align the cage with the pump housing tabs and click it firmly into place. This part is exclusively compatible with the Evolution Aqua Varipump 30000. For care, do not use harsh chemicals or wire brushes to clean the plastic, as these can scratch or damage the structural integrity. Instead, use a soft-bristled brush or a high-pressure hose to clear debris from the perforations. Always ensure the pump is powered off and unplugged before removing or replacing the cage.
