FAQs

How often should I clean the filter?

Disconnect the power, open the UV housing (refer to the manual), and replace the bulb with a new one of the correct wattage.

Regularly clean the filter sponges, replace the UV bulb, and check/replace filter media as needed.

What size pond is this filter suitable for?
