PSP Pond Filters

Effective Mechanical and Biological Filtration with FilterCLAY Media

Our PSP (Pressure Sinking Pellet) Pond Filters are specifically designed for "Heavy Solid Waste" applications, which include ornamental koi ponds and water gardens. PSP Filters combine our FilterCLAY (Clay Pellet Filter Media) with the right filter laterals to create a simple, yet efficient solid waste handling pond filter. Accomplishing both, solid waste capture and bio-filtration, our PSP Pond Filters are multi-functional. It's the unique characteristics of our FilterCLAY media that allows the PSP Filter to provide both, mechanical and biological filtration.

Recommended Filter Applications
PSP Pond Filters are intended to be used as an exclusive pond filter, providing effective, mechanical and biological filtration. Best suited for ponds with high-density fish loads, PSP Pond Filters are available in four sizes with a maximum flow rate of 80 GPM and a maximum pond size of 9,600 gallons. For pond applications greater than 9,600 gallons our Commercial PSP Pond Filters are available in larger sizes. PSP Filter installation.

For Best Filtration Results
Maximize the circulation inside the pond by utilizing several clean water returns, this will increase water circulation and help to suspend solid waste. Suspending solid waste in the pond helps it reach the bottom drain or surface skimmer, where it is then carried to the PSP Filter. Additionally, PSP Pond Filters are "fixed-bed" filters and require a high-pressure pump (high RPM) equipped with a strainer basket. Properly match the pumps flow rate to that of the pond filter (see "PSP Pond Filter Specifications" chart below").

Combined Your PSP Pond Filter with a UV Sterilizer for a complete Filtration System
The PSP Pond Filter provides effective mechanical and biological filtration while the SMART UV Sterilizer inactivates waterborne pathogens, viruses, algae, bacteria and protozoa giving you a beautiful, clear, healthy pond. Install the SMART UV Sterilizer with three-way, true-union valves for precise water flow through the UV Sterilizer.
