The Hozelock Bioforce pond filter range has been relaunched for the 2007 pond season and comprises of the following models, Bioforce 3000, Bioforce 5500, Bioforce 8000 and Bioforce 12000. All models now incorporate a UVC (UV) to eliminate green water from your pond.
Mechanical Filtration
The New Bioforce Filter is now more efficent and requires less cleaning than its predecessors and comes with the following features,
A. Through-flow course foams reduce filter cleaning frequency. B. Profiled foams present a larger surface area for the efficient removal of waste. C. Layered pond filter foams make thorough foam cleaning easier.
Increased biological capacity.
Hozelock have improved the biological filtration by adding Kaldnes K3 bio pond filter media to all the new bioforce filters. Kaldnes is scientifically proven and in widespread use in industrial water purification processes. as a result, it has vastly superior biological capacity compared to other biomedia used in pond filtration.
When using the new "backflush" facility, water flow through the Kaldnes biomedia removes loose debris and old less active bacteria, stimulating bacterial activity as a result.
UV efficiency Hozelock only use maximum efficiency quartz sleeves in the Bioforce UVC filter systems, which allow 87% UV efficiency for treating algae, compared to 30% and 50%f for glass and plastic respectively.
High-efficiency single-ended UV lamps and an in-built water turbulator ensure maximum water treatment and the elimination of green water.
Bayonet fitting of the UVC lamp allows quick cleaning and lamp change as required.
UV viewing point.
Bioforce is now equipped with a specially designed indicator so that the user can safely see if the UV lamp is switched on and functioning.
Easy Cleaning
The Bioforce range now has an easy clean backflush facility for flushing debris out of the filter thereby extending the time between thorough foam cleaning. This is also aided by the new "flow through" coarse foams, which efficiently remove waste particles whilst also reducing cleaning frequency.
How to install a Bioforce Pond Filter
Bury the Bioforce up to its lid next to the pond. It is best to use a Titan solids handling pump which moves solids from the pond to the Bioforce where they can be easily flushed away. Pond water is pumped up to the Bioforce which is buried up to its lid to hide it. Water from the Bioforce filter can either be passed straight back into the pond or up to the top of a waterfall. A waterfall will increase aeration.
