i must admit i do like the pagoda for sure. but that it going to be one hard job doing the concert the way that you are. how deep are you having the base. have you got added fibres into the concert mix or are you putting rods in.

hi mark i just brought another filter system just tryin to figure it out .means thou i now have to channel in a 3,inc bottom drain just dont really know much about thease filters it has a centre vortex chamber surrounded by 4 bays for media,also has a 30,watt uv and an aquamax 3500 pump which pushes water back to the pool via the uv just puzzles me whot draws the water from the bottom drain any suggestions...
Hi freeliner. Sorry I haven't posted sooner, for some reason I managed to overlook this thread. I've just read through it a bit, but just wanted to re-cap. It looks like you have your bottom drain in place, but I was wondering if you understand that the water level in the filter needs to match the water level in the pond ? What this means is that the filter may need to be buried to some extent, depending on the depth of the filter/height of the pond. Hope this helps.
Hi again freeliner. Sorry, but I missed one of your pics It looks like you've already taken into account the levels needed. When you fill the pond, the water will naturally find it's own level, so as you pump out the water from the filter, it will be replaced under the influence of gravity.

Cheers...Freddy.
yes chrs freddy the filter base is in place now so the pool level when full will be just cm,s higher than the filter level which should flow perfect just hope this filter will do the job thx steve...
