CARE AND MAINTENANCE – Pressure Filter

• Occasional cleaning of the filter pads will be necessary to ensure the proper functioning of the

system. The top filter pad is a coarse pad (black) and will catch larger particles. The bottom filter

pad (blue) is a fine pad designed to trap smaller debris. Both pads should be removed and washed

with clean water when they are visibly soiled.

• Filter pads should be replaced annually. Use TotalPond Replacement Filter item # RF13026.

• Filter pads should be changed annually. The exterior surface of the filter box may also need

occasional cleaning. Do not use any chemicals that may destroy the beneficial bacteria.

• The bio balls in you filter system and the inside surfaces of the filter box contain the beneficial

bacteria. At least once a year the entire system should be disassembled and cleaned thoroughly

using warm, soapy water (biodegradable soap). This should not be done during the warm season

as it may take up to 8 weeks to re-establish the environmental balance. The best time of the year to

“breakdown” your system is in early spring before the water temperatures begin to rise. This is also

the ideal time to replace the filter pads.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE – UV Clarifier

To maximize the performance of the UVC9, periodically disassemble the unit to clean dirt and debris from

the exterior of the glass tube.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

Be sure that the entire unit is completely dry and gaskets are properly seated when reassembling

the UVC9.

Failure to do so will result in water leakage, which can cause damage to the light unit.

disassembling the light.

2. Unscrew the locking ring, and pull out the light unit.

3. Carefully pull out the glass tube holder by twisting and then pull out.

4. Use warm, soapy water to clean the glass tube. Be sure to use biodegrable soap.

5. Reassemble the UVC9, and be sure that all gaskets and o-rings are seated properly.
