7. Gravity setup

A gravity fed filter works in the opposite way to a pump fed filter system, with the pump
drawing water away from the filter either via a suction hose, or been situated in the filter's
final chamber. Because gravity will always keep the water levels equal, when the pump pulls
water from the filter, pond water is replaced in the filter via the bottom drain. Gravity fed
systems are generally more efficient when compared to pump fed systems; bottom drains
require very little maintenance and are able to remove all pond waste, whereas pump cages
can become blocked over time.The pump in this system is pumping clean, filtered water and
therefore does not need as much maintenance. There are no cables or hoses coming from
the pond which can look unsightly and may trap debris in the pond. Water entering the filter
is not as turbulent as in a pump fed system.

7.1 Advantage gravity setup

The big advantage of a gravity setup compared to a pump fed setup is that you need less
power to run the same amount of water through the filter. The disadvantage is that it takes
more time to install everything.
