Perfect for installations where water quality, clarity, and fish health are priorities. Biomechanical Filtration Advantage FilterFalls combine mechanical filtration (removing suspended particles) with biological filtration (converting toxic ammonia and nitrites to harmless nitrates). This dual-action approach ensures crystal-clear water while maintaining a healthy environment for fish and beneficial bacteria. Frequently Asked Questions Q: Which FilterFalls model do I need? A: Choose based on your pond size and fish load. Larger ponds and higher fish populations require larger models for adequate filtration. Q: Can I expand the filter capacity later? A: Yes, FilterFalls are designed to expand as ponds age and fish grow. The oversized chamber accommodates additional filtration media when needed. Q: What is biomechanical filtration? A: Biomechanical filtration combines mechanical filtration (removing particles) with biological filtration (converting toxins). This provides both clear water and a healthy pond environment. Q: How does the overhanging weir prevent leaks? A: The overhanging weir with drip edge eliminates reliance on silicone seals, which can fail over time. Water flows over the weir naturally without seal-dependent connections. Q: What is included with the FilterFalls? A: Each unit includes installation kit, male thread adapter, one-piece liner flange, heavy-duty top grate, support bars, media bag, dual Bio-Tech filter mats, and bottom grate. Q: Can I camouflage the FilterFalls? A: Yes, the heavy-duty top grate and support bars accommodate stone and gravel for natural camouflaging in your landscape.
