Care and Maintenance

•

Occasional cleaning of the filter pads will be necessary to ensure the proper functioning of the system. The coace filter pads is

a designed to trap large debris. The fine filter pad catches smaller particles. All pads should be removed and washed with

clean water when they are visibly soiled - for best results, clean the filter pads weekly. (Note: Failure to clean the Filter Pads

will cause the pump to overheat and may void the Pumps warranty).

•

Filter pads should be replaced annually. Use Garden Treasures™ Replacement Filter Pads model # UP500 (Lowe's item

#111224).

•

The exterior surface of the filter box may also need occasional cleaning. Particularly if the openings in the top of the filter box

are obstructed. When cleaning the filter box use warm water only. Do not use any chemicals that may destroy the beneficial

bacteria.

•

The bio media balls in you filter system and the inside surfaces of the filter box contain the beneficial bacteria. At least once a

year the entire system should be disassembled and cleaned thoroughly using warm, soapy water (mild detergent). This

should not be done during the warm season as it may take up to 8 weeks to re-establish the environmental balance. The best

time of the year to "breakdown" your system is in early spring before the water temperatures begin to rise. This is also the

ideal time to replace the filter pads.
