Remove Inpond from pond using carry handle (do not use the cables to lift the Inpond)

Foams may be cleaned vigorously in a bucket of pond water.

Ceramic bio media will only need very occasional cleaning (once per year), but must be rinsed in pond water to prevent damaging the beneficial bacteria which help maintain a healthy pond.

The UVC lamp should be replaced every six months / once a season. It is recommended that the lamp is replaced in the spring.

The Blagdon Inpond 5 in 1 is centrifugal with a magnetic impellor movement driven by a watertight synchronous motor. They require minimum cleaning, only periodic cleaning of the impellor is necessary.

Adding Bio Start after filter maintenance will help replenish these beneficial bacterial populations and is highly recommended during the first two months of operation when the filter is slowly being colonised.
