CARE AND MAINTENANCE
•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 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.
