FILTER MAINTENANCE
The debris filter pad is first to receive the water that is pumped into the filter. When the debris filter begins to clog it can be
removed and rinsed or replaced completely. If you choose to rinse the debris filter, rinse with water taken from the pond instead
of chlorinated tap water. Doing this will avoid killing off the useful bacteria colonies that grow on the filter pads.
Conditions vary, but generally the Biomatrix Ball Media will begin to grow helpful bacteria in a few weeks. Once established, these
should not be disrupted during the warm weather season.
QUICK DISCONNECT / FLOW CONTROL VALVE INSTRUCTIONS
The intake and outlet are mounted to a
removable Quick Disconnect / Flow Control
valve.
The Blue Lever will adjust flow rate as well as
shut off the hoses allowing you to leave them
attached to the valve assembly at the pond
while servicing the filter case.
1) Turn off pump.
2) Pull Lever forward. This will close off flow in
both hoses inside the valve.
3) Pivot the Lever to the right - this unlocks
the Quick Disconnect Valve.
4) Pull Valve assembly straight upwards.

WINTERIZATION
These filters are intended for use in non-freezing environments. If used in areas with cold winters, they must be
removed from service, dried and stored before the freezing weather occurs. Failure to do so will void the warranty.
