Tadpole Filter Installation
with SMART UV Sterilizer
The Tadpole Filter is designed to be utilized as a pre-filter to your external pump and existing pond filtration system, but it can also be used as the "total pond filter"
in small pond applications. The Tadpole Filter is completely submersible and easy to clean for re-use. For effective small pond filtration it's hard to beat a Tadpole
Filter and SMART UV Sterilizer System! The SMART UV Sterilizer must be positioned after the Tadpole Filter where it can receive solids-free pond water. This will provide
maximum UV treatment, resulting in the optimum control of waterborne pathogens, viruses, algae, bacteria
and protozoa.
The diagram below shows the correct
Tadpole Filter and SMART UV Sterilizer operating locations. For additional circulation inside the pond, increase the pumps size by 50% and create a water circulation
By-Pass using a "Tee" and "Ball Valve" manifold. Use the additional flow capacity from the by-pass to increase circulation in the pond to help suspend solid waste. Be
sure not to exceed the SMART UV Sterilizer's water flow rate. |
