Aquascape has designed and patented a very efficient filtration system for large scale water features. The Wetland Filter consists of the Snorkel Vault and Centipede Module, which has been specifically designed to alleviate an assortment of common water afflictions that can accompany large water features.Modular in design, the filtration system can be expanded and customized to meet the needs of the builder. The adaptability of the filtration system allows it to maintain a water feature up to 1 1/2 acres in size, or a smaller feature with a large fish load. It can even be easily retrofitted onto existing pond environments!The Wetland Filter works on earth bottom and liner membrane ponds to improve and maintain water quality. It works to remove sediment from the pond, and strip excess nutrients to reduce the presence of algae. Lessening algae growth within your pond environment ultimately results in less chemical maintenance.The Large Centipede Module plays an important part in this specialized filtration system. This 6 foot piece is responsible for the distribution of water throughout the filtration system. Each Centipede Module has 230 square inches of open space to allow a flow rate of 1 inch per second, and 3,000 gallons per hour! It has been constructed from heavy-duty polyethylene, and sits at the lowest point in the filer, to ensure maximum water distribution. Each section attaches directly to a Snorkel Vault & Cap, which can house up to 4 centipedes!
