  1. Introducing the BluFilter

    The BluFilter is an ideal system for getting everything you need for your pond in one go. It includes a pond pump, a filter, a UV lamp, and a fountain. They come in different sizes, including the 1011 and the 2011.

  2. Unpacking the box

    • Instruction manual
    • BluFilter with 10-metre cable
    • Fountain set
    • Connection materials

    The 1011 and 2011 are the same size, but the 2011 has a slightly bigger pond pump.

  3. Opening the filter and using the filter mat

    The filter is easy to open, which makes maintenance and cleaning simple. As soon as you open it, you'll see a filter mat, perfect for catching debris like leaves. This mat also helps create a biological filter system in your pond.

  4. Adding zeolite and bio balls filter media

    • Zeolite: absorbs harmful substances
    • Bio balls: a biological filter of bacteria grows on these

    These filter media help filter your pond even better and keep it clean.

  5. Choosing the right pump capacity

    The BluFilter 1011 has a pump of 1000 litres per hour, and the 2011 has a pump of 2000 litres per hour. Check the website to see which BluFilter best suits your pond, since the 2011 also has a slightly bigger filter. This depends on the number of fish, the size of your pond, and the number of plants.

  6. Fighting algae with UV-C

    The BluFilter has a UV-C lamp that helps fight algae. If your pond water is very green, you might have an algae problem. The UV-C lamp destroys the algae, which is then caught in the filter, so you'll have a clear pond in no time.
