Hozelock Bioforce 5500 UVC Pond Filter

Biological Filtration

We have improved biological filtration by adding Kaldnes K3 biomedia exclusive to Hozelock Cyprio filter systems. Kaldnes is scientifically proven and in widespread use in industrial water purification process. As a result, it has vastly superior biological capacity compared to other biomedia used in pond filtration.

When using the new backflush facility, water flow through the Kaldnes biomedia removes loose debris and old less active bacteria, stimulating bacterial activity as a result.

UVC - for the efficient removal of green water

We only use maximum efficiency quartz sleeves in our UVC system, which allow 87% UV efficiency for treating algae, compared to 30% and 50% for glass and plastic respectively.

High efficiency single ended UV lamps and an in built water turbulator ensure maximum water treatment and the elimination of green water.

Bayonet fitting of the UVC lamp allows quick cleaning and lamp change as required.

Bioforce is now equipped with a specially designed indicator so that the user can safely see if the UV lamp is switched on and functioning.

Easy Cleaning

The range now has an Easy Clean backflush facility for flushing debris out of the filter thereby extending the time between thorough foam cleaning. This is also aided by the use of new flow through coarse foams, which efficiently remove waste particles whilst also reducing cleaning frequency

How to install a Bioforce Pond Filter:

Bury the Bioforce up to its lid next to the pond. It is best to use a Titan solids handling pump which moves solids from the pond to the Bioforce where they can be easily flushed away. Pond water is pumped up to the Bioforce which is buried up to its lid to hide it. Water from the Bioforce filter can either be passed straight back into the pond or up to the top of a waterfall. A waterfall will increase aeration.
