Germany Koi Pond: Full-Depth Clarity in One Week

Home 9 Case Studies and Results 9 Germany Koi Pond: Full-Depth Clarity in One Week

Key results

160cm visibility restored

1 week to noticeable clarity

8 filters cleaned in time of 1

The Challenge
Visibility had dropped to around 80cm due to algae and suspended solids
Pond bottom was no longer visible from the surface
Eight filter units were clogging quickly with dispersed algae
Fish activity continually stirred sediment back into the water

The Solution

One HydroFLOW® K40 unit was fitted to the suction line ahead of the 8-unit filter bank in July 2017, with no shutdown required. The signal causes suspended algae and fine particles to flocculate, so existing filters can capture them rather than passing them through.
