Thank you for purchasing your new EazyPod™filter. We are sure you will be delighted with its performance. If you
are unsure about anything, please consult your Evolution Aqua dealer or contact us.
The EazyPod filtration unit has been designed on the principles of high performance, minimum maintenance and a
compact footprint. This design delivers optimum water quality by using K1 media. The concept of the EazyPod is based
on the world renowned Nexus Eazy system - please visit our website for more information -

EazyPod Overview:
The concept is simple and yet innovative. Water enters via the inlet A(fig.1) and enters the outer chamber B, which
runs around the entire circumference of the EazyPod. Between Band the central chamber C, is a stainless steel
perforated screen. These perforations are situated in the lower half of the screen and around its entire face. This means
that when the water passes from the outer to inner chamber (Bto C), a downward flow is created. This causes many of
the larger solids to settle in the base of the outer chamber, due to the force of gravity.
The size of the perforations will not allow large mechanical waste to enter the central chamber, thus acting as a
first stage mechanical filter. The central chamber holds 30 litres of static K1 media. As the water enters the central
chamber, the fine smaller solids become entrapped in the K1. After passing through the K1 media, the clean water then
rises and overflows into the inner return pipe Dof the EazyPod. From here it returns to the pond via the return outlet E.
The EazyPod filtration system gives water quality and clarity that surpasses all expectations. The nature and volume of
the K1 media means, that when static, apart from being a very efficient mechanical filter, there is more than enough
surface area for beneficial bacteria to colonise. Therefore on a smaller pond, the Pod is an excellent complete filter.
Please note that in normal running, the K1 has to be static – it is only moved during cleaning and maintenance. If the
K1 is moved in normal operation, whether by air or by hand, all of the debris it has collected will be returned to the
pond! The K1 is cleaned and moved by connecting an air pump to the air line in the Pod, which in turn goes to an air
ring in the base of chamber C. This has small holes which cause the K1 to move and therefore clean itself.
During the cleaning cycle, the finer particles escape into chamber Bfrom the K1. This waste water can then be dumped
via a 1.5 inch / 50mm slide valve F.
Please check the table opposite to make sure you run your EazyPod within the specified limits to
achieve best results.
