FAQs

How often should I clean the filter?

Clean the filter every few weeks or when the cleaning indicator float pops up. Adjust the frequency based on your pond's specific conditions.

How do I clean the filter?

Turn the rotating cleaning handle to rinse the internal sponges. Open the discharge outlet to release the dirty water.

What is the purpose of the UV light?

The UV light eliminates algae and harmful microorganisms, helping to keep the water clear and healthy.

How often should I replace the UV bulb?

Replace the UV bulb annually or as recommended by the manufacturer.

What kind of pump do I need?

You will need a pond pump with a flow rate suitable for your pond's size. Ensure the pump is compatible with the filter's inlet size.

What if the water flow is weak?

Check the filter for any blockages and clean or replace the filter media. Also, check the pump and the pipes.

Can I use this filter for a small pond?

While the filter is designed for ponds up to 20000 litres, it can be used for smaller ponds. However, ensure the pump's flow rate isn't too strong for the pond's size.

Troubleshooting

Pond water is still cloudy.

Check the filter foams for blockages. Clean or replace them if necessary. Ensure the UV bulb is functioning correctly.

Reduced water flow.

Check for any obstructions in the inlet or outlet pipes. Clean the filter and the pump.

UV light not working.

Check the power supply to the UV unit. Replace the UV bulb if it's burnt out.
