MAINTENANCE
Cleaning and maintaining the EazyPod Complete will depend on flow rate, feed,
stocking, blanket weed etc.
An EazyPod Complete on a summer pond with heavy blanket weed will need more
frequent maintenance than a pond in December with no food fed. Be aware that
any movement of the K1 Media in the EazyPod Complete whilst the pond pump is
in operation will dislodge the waste collected and will be sent back to the pond and
clarity will suffer. If this does happen, the EazyPod Complete will eventually remove
this waste again in time. Please read the cleaning instructions for the EazyPod
Complete before attempting the cleaning procedure.
PLEASE NOTE: A pump fed system will need cleaning when the water level in
chamber B / C has risen and is close to the overflow assembly.
MAINTENANCE ADVICE
To achieve optimum water quality and clarity we recommend that the EazyPod
Complete be air backwashed and purged on a regular basis. The frequency of
cleaning will depend on the loading of the pond. However, the filter must be
cleaned regularly.
In the event of a blockage, the chamber will overflow on a pump fed system. The
overflow assembly (E) has a built in overflow. Should a blockage of the K1 media
occur, water will bypass the stainless steel screen and return to the pond.
