Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the VP20CAGE is straightforward and does not require complex tools. To install, simply align the cage with the pump intake housing and snap or screw it into place as dictated by your specific pump chassis. To maintain the longevity of the cage, clean it periodically using a soft brush to remove algae or mineral buildup that could restrict water flow. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the plastic; a gentle rinse in the pond or with a garden hose is usually sufficient. Always ensure the pump is powered down and unplugged before performing any maintenance on the cage or pump housing.
