5.Three Filter types

A) Pressure filters  (Out of pond canister)

Suitable for: Any pond, in particular waterfalls.
Not ideal for: Koi or Turtles, because of the waste volume**

  • Able to send water on to a waterfall
  • The filter is easy to hide
  • Perfect for waterfalls
  • The canister is easy to easy access.

Waterfall or stream> When NOT using a spray fountain  or    When using a spray fountain.
Decorative water feature
>  Such as figures etc
Circulation> 
Filter/pump choices for circulation.

**Koi & Turtles may  require a pressure filter if a gravity filter can't be installed above a waterfall,
     or if there is  no place to hide a gravity filter

B) Gravity filters (Out of pond filter box)

Suitable for: Any pond, in particular Koi, Turtles or a very heavy fish stocking.
Not ideal:  For waterfalls
(a better choice would be a pressure filter), hard to hide

  • Better than a pressure filter when aeration is critical
  • The filter box is easy to access.

Waterfall or stream> When NOT using a spray fountain   or    When using a spray fountain.

Decorative water feature> Filter/pump choices for water features.
