## Features

- Strongly recommend installing an automatic water replenishment valve: a fully automatic water level controller that automatically stops when the water is full,because you'll need to have a way to constantly replenish the water for your pool as it's lost due to filter cleaning.If you are willing, you can prepare a frame with filter cotton for secondary recycling,or you get about 10-30 gallons of free fish fertilizer every day, so pair this with a big garden, and watch your plants grow! By the way, fish fertilizer stinks, so prepare yourself!
- The cleaning cycles are supposed to wash the waste out the sewage port. But about 2 % of that waste, ends up splattered on the inside walls of the filter . The drum filter is dried for a long time or the particles are solidified in the filter for a long time.which will also cause the equipment to work frequently, and can be cleaned drum and walls with water cannon or soft toothbrush.This was designed to be easy to clean!.
- The cleaning nozzle tube can be manually rotated to suitable Angle. lf the cleaning nozzle is blocked, the stainless steel nozzle needs to be twisted out for cleaning. Leaves and twigs cause bad things to happen when they get inside the drum, So you must cover the lid.when there are too many impurities in the water, the equipment will continue to work until the impurities are filtered, and the equipment will start to reduce accordingly.
- When the drum is rotating, do not press the drum by hand, otherwise the motor gear will be damaged .do not start the equipment before water, otherwise the cleaning pump dry burn damage.
- Can be used for Filter large fish ponds, with an hourly water output of 4000 gallons, basically meeting the current Filter needs of all fish ponds.General recommendation: The hourly flow rate of the microfilter should be close to the volume of the water, that is, the water should be purified once per hour.best match elelife Eco-Sphere Energy-Saving 4280GPH Pond Pump with Controller and 33-ft.
