FAQs

How often should I clean the filter?

Clean the filter when the float indicator pops out or when you notice a decrease in water flow. The frequency depends on the pond's bioload, but typically, cleaning every few weeks is sufficient.

How do I replace the UV bulb?

Disconnect the filter from the power supply. Consult the product manual for detailed instructions on accessing and replacing the UV bulb. Always use a replacement bulb of the correct wattage.

What type of pump do I need?

The pump's flow rate should be compatible with the filter's specifications. Consult the product manual for the recommended flow rate for your pond size.

Can I use this filter with a waterfall?

Yes, the pressurised design allows the outlet to be positioned above the filter, making it suitable for waterfalls and other water features.

What is the purpose of the bio balls?

Bio balls provide a large surface area for beneficial bacteria to colonize. These bacteria help to break down organic waste and maintain a healthy pond ecosystem.

What is the warranty?

Warranty information can be found on the product packaging or the manufacturer's website. It typically covers manufacturing defects for a specified period.

Troubleshooting

Filter is not removing algae and water is cloudy.

Check the UV bulb. Replace if it is old or not functioning. Clean the filter media to remove built-up debris.

Low water flow.

Clean the filter media. Check for blockages in the inlet or outlet pipes. Ensure the pump is running correctly and has adequate flow.

Float indicator is constantly raised.

Clean the filter thoroughly using the rotating handle. Check for any blockages within the filter.
