Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility: This set is exclusively compatible with the Pontec MultiClear 5000 and 8000 filters.
Installation Steps:
- Switch off the pump and isolate the filter unit.
- Open the filter lid to access the internal media chamber.
- Remove the old, degraded foams and dispose of them properly.
- Rinse the new foams with pond water (not chlorinated tap water) to remove any manufacturing dust.
- Insert the green, blue, and black foams into the filter housing in the manufacturer-specified order.
- Secure the lid and restart the pump.
Care Tips: To maximize the lifespan of these foams, rinse them periodically in a bucket of pond water during your seasonal filter maintenance. Avoid using tap water, as chlorine can kill the beneficial bacteria living within the foam structure.
