User questions & answers

Question:	Do you have 240 GPH pump and tube kit for Showa Koi fish pond spitter from Toscano , it recomends this pump for the item
Answer:	We have a 1200 GPR pump due to our large koi pond and have this spitter hooked up using a diverter that allows approximately 300 GPR to pass through the spitter. I'm not sure what brand pump we have, but this works well with this spitter.
Question:	What size tube is needed 1\2 inch inside diameter ok
Answer:	Yes
Question:	What is the size please
Answer:	Dimensions: 6.5"Wx6.5"Dx9.5"H 4 lbs.
Question:	Is it come with the pump
Answer:	No it doesn't come with pump. It has 1/2 inch metal tube extending out from it's tail which connects to pump but the order doesn't come with accessories.Instead I suggest trying out Lowes/Home depot first. I had difficulty finding right size of connector because of the metal extension/tube it came with.

User questions & answers

Question:

What size tubing is needed to hook this up

Answer:

The charger only activates when connected to the battery. You can test the voltage at the battery terminals. Without the charger connected to battery my meter shows my battery voltage @ 12.4V. When charger is connected to the battery the voltage should be higher; my meter shows 13.5V to 13.8V. To test the current coming from the charger, connect the meter inline between the charger--negative probe of meter connected to the +ve output of charger and +ve probe to the +ve battery terminal. Negative of charger goes to the -ve battery terminal. Mine shows 0.16A under bright sun. My measurements confirm the specifications for floating charge voltage of13.8V and trickle charge current of 0.15A.

Specifications: Maximum output: Approx. 1600 GPH inlet/outlet hose adapter: 3/4", 1 1/4" dimensions: Voltage: 110-120v 60hz UV power: 13w suitable for ponds with small mix of fish and koi up to: Approx. 900 gal suitable for decorative ponds up to: Approx. 1600 gal the CPF-pressure pond filter series is among the latest generation of pond filters, combining in a compact system, a high-performance bio-mechanical filter along with the most modern UV technology. The filter is unremarkably dug in at the edge of the pond. The compact way of construction makes the pond technology almost completely disappear. Any and all connections as well as the whole field of technology are found in the top cover. The pond filter can be dug in without any problems. The pond water can be pumped to higher-located waterfalls and from this point return into the garden pond. The pressure pond filter ensures a stable, biological balance and improves the water quality. Along with the appropriate pump (not included in the supply, please note the pond pump´s maximum volume capacity), this ensures for clear water, thus creating healthy surroundings for the pond inhabitants. Operation pressure pond filters with integrated UV unit are the combination of biological and mechanical filtration and contribute to the effectiveness by a UV-c pond clarifier. Due to their UV radiation, UVC pond clarifiers alternate the algae proteins´ tertiary and quaternary structure which causes their destruction. The algae's clump, thus forming large parts of particles that can be easily removed from the water circulation by the mechanical pond filtration of the pond filter. During the bio-mechanical cleaning microorganisms accumulate inside the filter and remove germs and bacteria from the water. By the way of mechanical filtration, floating particles and dirt remain in the pond filter and do not return into the pond water.

• Biological and mechanical filter chambers for more efficient removal of dissolved and solid waste
• Simple quick handle cleaning system for easy maintenance (no need to open and clean foams all the time)
• Enables rapid growth of aerobic bacteria resulting in removal of lethal ammonia and nitrite
• Able to cope with higher water flows compared to traditional gravity filters
• Complete with inlet and outlet hose adapters.Outlet/Inlet hose adapter 3/4 inches~5/4 inches

User questions & answers

Question:	I am having trouble getting the nut off the quartz tube to clean it and see what size bulb to order. I'm afraid of breaking the tube. Can anyone hel
Answer:	I've not tried this yet but here is a youtube link. Looks like the nut is just a locking ring so don't be afraid to muscle it off. Then the Tube can be twisted off once the locking ring is removed .https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xq97-f5FckQ
Question:	Is it submersible? Or does it have to stay out of the water
Answer:	It stays out of the water
Question:	Can you adjust the output on the filter
Answer:	As far as limiting the flow, no you can't. You'd have to buy a pump that limits the output via flow adjustment. I can say temporarily I am running this though a 300-500GPH pump and it works just fine.
Question:	How effective is the cleaning system? Do the filters have to be removed a few times per month and cleaned or not
Answer:	For the longest time I've been convinced that a pond was just like a boat; the expense, aggravation and endless hours that go into maintaining one is simply the norm....but that all changed last year when I got the Grech filter!A cold snap in early November 2013 got the best of a friend's filter, splitting it wide open (thankfully!). Being on a budget he decided to take a chance and replace his old filter with the Grech CPF-2500. I'm glad he did because after seeing how well the Grech worked for his pond, I purchased one for myself! (I chose the CPF-5000 with the 18 watt UV bulb because I have a pretty large pond). These Grech filters are by far the best either of us has ever had! Not only does it out perform some of the pricey "dealer" filters like those that I had, it also requires less maintenance than some of those more expensive brands. I've used the Grech for almost two full seasons now and not only has it cut the amount of bio/enzymatic cleaners, clarifiers and algae control additives I need to use in half, the time I spend on pond maintenance has been cut by at least 80%! The filter is a little complicated to assemble the first time around. It's equally as complicated and also time consuming to break it all apart to do a full cleaning (especially the CPF-5000 as it has seven layers of filters). That said, you might only need to fully disassemble it for cleaning once in a seven/eight month season...and that's at the end of season!! I opened the pond using the Grech for the first time in 2014 and in record time (less than two weeks) the water was the clearest it had ever been....and without a single full filter cleaning!! I wasn't having any noticeable issues with water quality or flow but after running it from the open for over two months straight without a full cleaning, I just felt like it was too good to be true so I took on the dreadful task of pulling it apart. I quickly learned that 1) I probably could have waited longer to clean it and 2) totally dismantling the filter cartridges to clean it mid-season is completely unnecessary! Just like last year, I again only did one mid-season cleaning for all of 2015. This time I waited until I felt like the water flow seemed a little slower (three to four months after opening). This time I did not disassemble the filters from their cartridges and instead simply hosed them down really well, coming them from all sides. I also pressed each filter down to the center several times on each side to wash out the deep down crud while hosing. It worked perfectly and only took about 20 minutes start to finish. The backwash and self cleaning system for this filter is genius! The filter pads are shaped like cogs with notches around the outer edges. Connected to the cleaning handle is triangle shaft that goes the entire length of the filter which fits tightly into the notches on the filters. When cranking, the shaft uses the notches to rotate all the filters at one time while simultaneously pressing down into each filter and squeezing out the surface crud which then gets washed away through the backwash valve. Brilliant! I always clean in sets; 15-20 full cranks clockwise then 15-20 full cranks counterclockwise, waiting for the water to run clear before changing directions. I repeat the sets until the the water is no longer thick and dark while cranking. At the opening I did this every couple days until the pond was clear, after that weekly seems to be okay. It might take you 3 or 4 minutes each time. I'm closing, this is hands down the best filter ever!!

User questions & answers

Question:	Is the pressure of the water coming out adjustable
Answer:	If your pump can be adjusted, or you can put an adjustment valve between the pump and frog. The hose is attached to the frog. I found out the hard way that you need a lot more GPH than you think. I bought one that met their specs, and it was woefully inadequate. I now have it connected to one that’s about 250 GPH, and it works much better.
Question:	The frog in last picture is different. Which one do we get
Answer:	Thanks for your question! The last photo is an outdated photo. The frog is propping its head up on its right foreleg and has its left foreleg over its back leg. So the main photo (and white background photos) are correct. — Steve at Practical Garden Ponds, 484-237-2080
Question:	So, does this float on the water? Is it secured on the ground next to the pond? What
Answer:	It does not float. I have mine sitting on a rock in the pond. You can put it outside the pond and let it it spit into the water.
Question:	What size tubing should I get with this? Does 1/2” work
Answer:	I think we used 5/8
