INSTALLATION
The EazyPod Automatic comes ready to be installed on a PUMP FED set-up - no changes to any of
the fittings are required.
The EazyPod Automatic should be situated at a height above the pond water level,
to allow adequate gravity return to the pond (subject to the maximum performance of your chosen
pump).
The gravity return pipe work from the exit point of the EazyPod Automatic to the pond needs to be a
minimum of 3 inches (90mm), 4” (110m) for flow rates over 7,500 litres per hour and should have
no restrictions. Great care should be taken to ensure that no air locks are created within the gravity
return pipe work. The return pipe should have an “appropriate fall” from the EazyPod Automatic to
the pond.
The pipe work from the pond pump to the inlet of the EazyPod Automatic will need to be connected
to the 1.5 inch (50mm) non return hosetail (K). The 4 inch / 90-115 mm (minimum) gravity return
pipe work will need to be connected to the rubber adaptor (I) on the outlet point of the EazyPod
Automatic.
This fitting when first connected to this pipe could appear too big (especially 90mm) or too large
4” (115mm) – it will however reduce/stretch with the clip provided and make a tight seal – this is
done with a screwdriver. The return pipe is then extended and returned to the pond or waterfall as
required.

INSTALLATION EQUIPMENT
1. Pond Pump. Please ensure that the pump’s maximum actual flow rate is no more than the
specified limits (see page 10).
2. Pipe work from the unit’s waste valves to the intended discharge point. This can be rigid pipe work
or a simple flexible hose of at least 1” diameter.
3. Mains cable (3 core) of an appropriate length to connect the EazyPod Automatic control box to
your power socket.
