Product Details:
The PondMAX Euro Series Pressure Pond Filter is a high-efficiency pressurized pond filter system designed to deliver reliable pond filtration and maintain clear and healthy pond water. Available in 20-liter and 30-liter capacity containers, this pond filter provides rapid and effective filtration without the need to open or dismantle the unit during routine maintenance.
Ideal for ponds with full sun exposure, koi ponds, and water features, this pressurized biological pond filter features a sealed design that enhances bacterial growth and improves filtration performance. The integrated pressurized pond cleaning backwash system allows debris to be flushed out easily, helping clean dirty pond water while minimizing maintenance time. This bio pressure pond filter supports efficient mechanical and biological filtration and is suitable for use as a koi pond filter system or for water fountain filtration.
FEATURES
Durable construction resistant to UV rays and mechanical shock
Easily concealed: it can be almost entirely buried
Built-in backwash rinse system for simple, low-maintenance operation
Five-stage pond filter media system for optimal debris removal and biological filtration
Designed to maintain clear, healthy pond water
Clear, healthy pond water starts with consistent filtration, and the Euro Series Pressure Filter is built to make that easy to maintain. Its sealed, pressurized housing can be partially or fully buried next to the pond, keeping the unit out of sight while it works.
Inside, a five-stage filter media system handles both mechanical filtration (trapping debris and sediment) and biological filtration (supporting the beneficial bacteria that break down fish waste and organic matter). Because the housing stays sealed during operation, it creates a stable environment that supports steady bacterial growth over time.
Routine maintenance is handled through the built-in backwash system. When it’s time to clean, turning the top knob from WORK to CLEAN reverses the water flow and flushes trapped debris out through the dedicated dirty-water outlet, with no need to open the lid for a quick rinse. For a deeper clean, the lid lifts off so the filter media can be removed and rinsed under running water.
PondMAX Euro Series Pressure Filter is a good fit for koi ponds, water gardens, and fountain features, particularly where fish load or full sun exposure calls for dependable, ongoing filtration. It requires a separate pump connected to the inlet to operate and is intended for outdoor pond use, not for connection to a public water supply.
Setup
- Position the filter at least 3 ft (1 m) from the pond edge, in a spot that won’t flood, and where it won’t fall into the water.
- Fit the gaskets on the connectors, then attach a pump to the “IN” inlet.
- Connect a pipe from the “OUT” outlet to return filtered water to the pond.
- Turn the top knob to the WORK position to begin filtering.
Routine Cleaning (Backwash)
- Switch off the pump.
- Open the safety valve and connect a pipe to the “DIRTY” outlet to carry away the rinse water.
- Turn the top knob to the CLEAN position to reverse water flow and flush debris from the media.
- Once clear, turn the knob back to WORK and close the safety valve.
Deep Cleaning
- With the pump off, unclip the lid and lift it away from the housing.
- Remove the filter media (sponges, bio-spheres, Kinshi-mat) and rinse each under running water — avoid chemical detergents, which can harm beneficial bacteria.
- Reassemble the media in its original order, reposition the lid correctly, and re-secure the clips.
- Restart the pump and confirm the knob is set to WORK.
A Few Things to Keep in Mind
- Not for use in freezing conditions — remove, empty, and store indoors over winter.
- Maximum water temperature: 95°F (35°C).
- Never connect to a public water supply.
