    PondKeeper Water Garden Filters
    The PondKeeper media is so unique; there is no other exactly like it. Designed to protect sensitive beneficial bactera during backwash, while providing huge amounts of surface area for the bacteria to live and prosper.
    The PondKeeper filter utilizes a totally unique backwashing jetting system GC Tec calls the "FLUFF-N-SPIN" system. Not only does the internal design of the filter allow for a "FLUFFING"; of the media during backwash, but spins the bed and each individual piece of the PondKeeper media. This causes the media to get rid of any old bio floc that might be clinging to each piece, while holding on to the precious beneficial bacteria within the filter. There is no other like it. Due to " FLUFF-N-SPIN" agitation system and the design of the media, these units backwash beautifully using any low aperage Koi pond pumps.
    Complete with 2 HP Media Agitator
    Two speed pumps are not necessary with the PondKeeper filter
    Higher quality injection molded tank
    Complete with 6 position Multiport valve that allows you to backwash, bypass to waste, bypass to recirculate, rinse. You can even use this filter to vacuum out your pond with the addition of a vacuum hose to your pump.
    Same Lifetime warranty as the AquaBead and AlphaONE line of filters
    No clogging or channeling with normal backwashing
    Performs both Biological and Mechanical filtering in one easy to care for unit
    Each PondKeeper unit comes complete with 2" unions for quick, easy installation
    Water drains on each unit
    Includes easy reading pressure gauge that tells you in an instant when the filter is dirty and needs backwashing
    Easy to see sight glass to tell you when backwashing is done
    How Does GC Tek Size Their Filters?
    University tests show that one cubic foot of media have approximately 450 square feet of surface area! This volume of surface will cultivate enough beneficial bacteria to manage the waste from 50 lbs of fish feeding on a daily diet equivalent to 1% of their body weight at 38% protein.
    This formula is the basis for the pond size and fish load ratings GC Tek uses to size it's filters. In fact, GC Tek uses the more conservative end of the range to size their filters.
    You can be confident when you use a GC Tek AlphaONE or AquaBead Koi pond filter, or a PondKeeper water garden filter, that you are providing a superior level of bio-mechanical filtration for your Koi pond or water garden.
