Both are superbly engineered device encourages debris and waste to flow into a circular collection chamber. the regular bottom drain carries debris away underground via standard 3" PVC pipe (not included) to a disposal area away from the pond.

Most pondkeepers know that the best way to ensure clear pond water is with an ultraviolet sterilizer. Some often overlooked factors are what to do when the UV light is not doing the job anymore. Usually, this is a simple as an old lamp. Depending on the brand, UV lamps should generally be replaced about every 12-15 months of use.
