Setup

Installation
Before starting the installation of the C-25 EVO you need to know which setup you are go-
ing to use. The C-25 EVO can be used for both a gravity and pump fed setup. We will explain
the two main systems below. Do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions about
the different setups. Please contact us at [email protected] or start a live chat at

Gravity setup
As the name suggests, the gravity setup is based on gravity. Due to gravity, the water flows
to the place where the water level is lower. It's called a gravity setup because the water flows
into the filter due to gravity. The main characteristic of the gravity setup is that the water in
the pond is equal to the water level in the filter. For optimal use of the volume of the filter,
the pond should be close to the maximum water level in the filter. This ensures that the filter
will be used optimally. To keep the water circulating, a circulation pump must be placed at the
outlet of the filter.
Figure 4 shows an example of a gravity setup where the pond is build a little above the
ground so the water level in the pond is close to the maximum water level in the filter. You
can see how the water flows by the arrows. The clean water flows through a circulation pump
to the pond. This causes the water level in the filter to drop and the water level in the pond
to increase. Subsequently, the dirty water will flow back to the filter by gravity via the pond
skimmer and the bottom drain.
Pump Fed setup
Besides the gravity setup, you can also go for the pump fed setup. It's called a pump fed
setup because the water flows into the filter through a circulation pump. The advantage of
the pump fed setup is that the water level of the pond does not have to be the same as that
of the filter. For example, this means you do not have to place the filter in the ground, even
though your pond is completely in the ground. The big difference with the gravity setup is
that the water flows from the pond to the filter by a pump.
Figure 5 shows an example of a pump fed setup where the filter is placed on the floor next to
the filter. You can see how the water flows by the arrows. The circulation pump in the pond
ensures that the dirty water flows from the pond to the filter. Due to gravity the clean water
will flow from the filter back to the pond.
