RTF 5500 Filter System - Free to a good home
We are about to close the pond down due to my working away from home and not having time to keep on top of the water quality. To start with I have one of my filter systems - RTF 5500 going to a free home. It will come with Agro stones and clam shells if wanted, along with all piping etc.
Any further information, please let me know.

This would be absolutely perfect for me to run on a temporary pool whilst I extend the pond!
Unfortunately not enough days off to make the journey.... so if anyone down south takes it and fancies renting it out to me for a Month I'd be very interested.

Afternoon all,
just a very quick follow up on this filter. I have had quite a bit of interest in it but need to ensure that if you are interested in it, you are aware that it is a seriously big bit of kit. Dimensions are as below; I only just about managed to fit it into my van, so you get some idea.
As it is still connected to the pond, I will be looking to hopefully disconnect this Saturday. After it has been disconnected i shall message on here for all.
L50 x W25 x H41 inches
4 ft x 2 ft x 3.4 ft
127cm x 63.4 cm x 104.14

Sorry all,

UPDATE.
Filter is now disconnected and stored awaiting collection. Please note, this item is large and quite heavy, it will need at least 2 people to lift. It comes with all media, pipes, shells etc and must be taken as one. I cant split as I need it going asap. This is also placed on various sites and has seen over 25 people asking to collect. Pics as attached. Contact please by Text/SMS to 07800 606084, please do not call. Collection by this Monday day time would be very much appreciated.
Chris

Lol, you are welcome mate. I did say it was quite a substantial bit of kit as used by professionals but over the top for my setup. Make good use of it and let me know how you get on ?

Running heater at low temp?
Covering the pond with polycarb should be enough to stop water temps dipping below 6C for the most...
