Connecting Inlet Hoses
The recommended hose size for your
Midipond filter is stated in the filter per-
formance and specification chart.
Always secure hose with a jubilee clip.
Warming the hose in a bucket of
boiling water can aid fitting.
Always ensure that the smaller
diameter hosetail is cut off and
removed to prevent reduced filter
performance.
Use the shortest possible hose lengths to minimise flow restrictions.
Avoid folds and kinks in the hose, which will reduce flow and filter performance.

Important
The outlet hoses should be smooth bore pipe installed over as short a distance as possible with no
kinks or bends.
The water level in the filter outlet chamber after the carbon wool cartridge should not be higher than
the outlet fittings when in use.
See Flow detail diagram maximum outlet chamber level. (page 9)
INSTALLATION
WARNING:
If there is insufficient drop in height from the outlet pipes or excessive bends or kinks
this will cause the filter to drain poorly allowing the outlet chamber to fill above the maximum
recommended level. This will increase filter maintenance and may cause the filter to overflow.
