  1. Yes that's why I went with mounting my sieve well...

    Yes that's why I went with mounting my sieve well above the top of the Eazy Pod so it was getting as much help from gravity as possible without making the sieve too high up so I couldn't get into the...
  2. The sieve doesn't have to be as high as I've got...

    The sieve doesn't have to be as high as I've got it as that was just how the existing brick work was. As long as the outlet of the sieve is a bit higher than the inlet of the Eazy Pod or 220 in your...

    Annoyingly I had a Cetus that I bought from someone on here a few years ago and it sat in the shed for years as I could figure out the best way to put it into my system so sold it. About a year or...

    I'm running an Evolution Aqua Vario 20K LPH on the main filter system and an Aqua Forte 10K LPH variable speed pump on the skimmer line which has the sieve and Eazy Pod on as I don't need as much...

    Hopefully that's the right link should be page 16 of my build thread. Look for post number 312 as that has...

    No problem Alan.

    What you want is a pump fed sieve not a gravity fed seive OK.

    All you need to do then is mount the sieve high enough to be able to gravity feed the 220 and then just connect...
  7. Good luck Alan. Any other questions just ask :)

    Good luck Alan.

    Any other questions just ask :)

    Sounds like you are confusing pump fed and gravity fed set ups in what you have been reading and then thinking of doing I think.

    You've got to go pump to a filter then gravity return to the pond...

    They're probably claiming for a new bumper plus it has to be painted with the correct type of paint because it's plastic then there's labour and VAT so at first glance it sounds a bit OTT but at the...

    I know what you mean Dave. My Evo 9 was a 55 plate and only a 2 litre turbo charged engine plus it had 4WD which tends to be slightly slower off the line unless you are willing to give it the beans...

    A lot of insurance companies wouldn't insure Evos etc as they were classed as having supercar performance at family car prices. Not many family saloons were capable of 0 to 60 in 4.2 seconds and a...

    That number is his direct line and very often I have to leave a...

    Oh how things have changed! In 2009 or 2010 I put a highly modded Evo 9 into a ditch and it cost about £14k to repair. On renewal my insurance went up less than £50. But the premium was just under...

    I think you'll find most insurances have gone up this year due to various reasons both locally and globally!!! And on top of that it doesn't help that you have to pay insurance premium tax which is a...

    Yes as that's basically how the blue barrel moving bed filter works I believe so would maybe just need to swap the media for brushes?
  18. Yes I just thought that with the lid held on with...

    Yes I just thought that with the lid held on with the V band style clamp there's not much chance of any pressure build up blowing it off not that there should be that much pressure build up in it?

    Like the idea but would be a pain to clean at 4ft below the surface of water. Might be a better option to go after the pump beside the pond though with brushes or foam in it as long as it could...

    The other options would be to take the bead off the main filter system and put it in place of the pump fed sieve on the skimmer line and use the pump fed sieve on the main filter system or use the...

    I know what you mean as that's why I originally thought of going with a seive between the pump and bead but couldn't find any short enough to fit into my setup.

    Oh the joys of going pump fed again...

    Thanks.

    The pump is a 20K LPH EA variable speed version so running it at 50% should be a good place to start and I've got the option to go higher or lower as required.

    You could be right about...

    Makes sense Phil, thanks.

    I already have some K3 from an old Bioforce Revolution filter just don't think there's the same volume that the Tempest has of K+ so potentially would need some more K3....
  24. Thanks Phil. Was thinking that if I used a...

    Thanks Phil.

    Was thinking that if I used a Tempest with K3 in I could run it faster that the rated max flow rate as it wouldn't need to filter as well because of the bead after it. Only thing is,...

    Hi Phil, Thanks for your reply. My problem is the system is pump fed so have currently got a 2" retro BD and pump in the pond which I was going to change to 4" retro BD to fed a sieve then put the...
