High Performance pressurized pond filters with integrated UV sterilizer/clarifier Laguna Pressure-Flo Filters are high performance water filtering systems that keep pond water clean and healthy. These all-in-one filters provide mechanical, biological* and UV sterilization and are designed to work in tandem with a solids handling pumps such as Laguna's Max-Flo.
They also feature a revolutionary Backwash-Cleaning System that easily cleans the entire surface of the foam filters without opening the filter. This patent-pending system is one of a kind. Backwash cleaning can be done easily and comfortably in a few minutes without opening the lid. This feature ensures that the filters perform at optimal levels for many days and prolongs the time between full maintenance sessions. An easy-view cleaning indicator signals when it's time to perform backwash cleaning.
The units can be installed in or above ground. Replacement parts available upon request.

How It Works:
1) With the filter connected to the pump, water enters the unit through a water inlet.
2) It then passes through the mechanical filtration stage, consisting of foam filters that intercept and trap dirt and debris.
3) Next, water enters a biological filtration chamber (except PT1500) where it comes into contact with Biospheres bio media which harbour beneficial bacteria that keeps the water healthy.
4) Dirt-free water then passes along an integrated UV-C lamp, where it is exposed to ultraviolet rays that inhibit the growth of single-celled algae organisms.
5) Filtered water finally returns to the pond.
