{"product_id":"evolution-aqua-surge-filter","title":"Evolution Aqua Surge Filter","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis filter keeps pond water clear without asking you to handle wet sponges or foam pads, since the K+Media inside is cleaned automatically through the built-in Air Clean process. A UV clarifier is built in as well, helping to control green water in ponds up to 5,000 litres. Cleaning day means turning a couple of valves rather than a full strip-down, so looking after it takes less of your time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2 class=\"h4\"\u003eOverview\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Evolution Aqua Surge Filter combines K+Media filtration with a built-in UV clarifier in one unit, doing away with the sponges and foam pads used in most conventional pond filters. Because there's no foam to lift out and rinse, cleaning comes down to turning a set of valves rather than scrubbing anything by hand, which keeps routine maintenance quicker and your hands dry. It's built to help keep pond water clear and in good condition on ponds within its rated size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e**Key benefits**\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo sponges or foam pads to remove and clean\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in UV clarifier works alongside the filtration to help control green water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eK+Media handles both mechanical and biological filtration, and never needs replacing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAir Clean Technology cleans the media in place, using air rather than manual scrubbing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo moving parts, keeping the unit reliable with little upkeep\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStepped hosetails, ball valves, a clear waste hose and mounting brackets are all supplied\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2 class=\"h4\"\u003eHow it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePond water is pumped up through the filter, where the K+Media forms a barrier that catches debris as the water passes through it. That waste stays trapped in the media until you run the Air Clean Technology cleaning process, which is patented and dislodges the debris using air rather than a manual scrub.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e**Cleaning and installation** To clean the filter, you turn off the pump, close the ball valves and open the waste valve. Air is then drawn into the filter and mixes with the water inside, which sets the media moving and releases the waste it has trapped, and the dirty water drains away through the waste line while the media itself comes out clean. The stepped hosetails make it straightforward to connect flexible hose, and the clear waste hose lets you see when the water running out has cleared. Mounting brackets are included, and the compact design is useful where there is not much room around the pond for equipment. Wiring the UV clarifier into your mains supply is meant to be simple, though you will still want a suitable outdoor power point in place before you start.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaximum pond size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5,000 litres per unit\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUV clarifier power\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18W, built in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFiltration media\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eK+Media (mechanical and biological)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFiltration rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTraps debris down to 1 micron\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCleaning method\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAir Clean Technology (foam-free, self-cleaning)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMoving parts\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNone\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIncluded accessories\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStepped hosetails, ball valves, clear waste hose, mounting brackets\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"AquaticsHub","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":57614570160501,"sku":null,"price":304.96,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0922\/0610\/4949\/files\/SurgeFilter.png?v=1790685415","url":"https:\/\/aquaticshub.co.uk\/products\/evolution-aqua-surge-filter","provider":"AquaticsHub","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
