Evolution Aqua Tempest Filter - Pond Filter and Water Polisher

Product Information

I don’t want to say that my shower didn’t work but I really saw no results from using it. The pond was the same, the clarity was the same. I thought at first the Koi were a little more active but when looking in all my other ponds which did not have a shower, they were the same. The flow rate in the new pond is high, we are probably turning 15,000L per hour via the 30” Micro Bead and at the time 10,000L just returning from the skimmer. The idea for the future was to Quarantine large Koi in there because for a short period of time the fast flow would give the new Koi strength and in turn could even finish the QT process early. Then when we had moved the big Koi to the new owners, we would add some Tosai in the system and grow them over the summer months, the temps in the room will get to 28C no problem. Fast flow…a lot of food… Grow like crazy!! When Evolution Aqua brought out the new Kplus media which is a better form of K1 media, they brought a sinking version out and we thought we would test in a 3-tier shower unit and run from the skimmer line. So, we put around 14,000L of water per hour over the shower and left it. With the bead being so efficient the water has always been pretty perfect. When we started the pond, it took a while for us to get the correct flow through the filter, we did have to tweak a few times before it all of a sudden just went perfect, and we are talking a matter of days. That’s the good thing with a Varipump because we didn’t have to use valves to restrict flow, we could just use the control panel on the Varipump. Award winning aquatics company Evolution Aqua have launched a new, innovative polisher for ponds, the Tempest. The Tempest filter uses Evolution Aqua’s K+Media to deliver crystal clear, healthy water. Designed to be used in conjunction with any filtration system, the Tempest offers additional mechanical and biological filtration. The Tempest filter can also be used on quarantine systems or as a standalone filter on smaller ponds up to 5,000 Litres / 1,100 Gallons / 1,320 US Gallons. The housing of the Dirty Harry pre-filter is transparent, so it is easy to see when it needs cleaning.

The Tempest Filter is an innovative polishing system for ponds that will help to deliver crystal clear, healthy water. Designed to be used in conjunction with most filtration systems, the Tempest offers additional mechanical and biological filtration. The Evolution Aqua Tempest Filter can also be used on quarantine systems or as a standalone filter on smaller ponds. Water is pumped up through the Tempest filter. The K+Media moves to the top of the filter, becoming a mechanical barrier that traps debris as it flows through the system. Waste is trapped in the K+Media until the cleaning cycle dislodges it and it gets flushed away. Easy to clean However, when the pandemic hit last year, we didn’t have the regular shipments we usually have, we could not get to go to Japan in the Spring to get our usual selection. So the Tosai we did have in, which were around 2000 pieces sold out in 6 weeks. So, we had no Koi to put in this pond for growing. I hope that is different this year! On larger systems that require a higher flow rate, multiple Tempest filters can be installed in a modular system.The pond is run on a 30" Micro K1 bead filter from Evolution Aqua. We will be trialing it over the next few months to see if it can do as we expect. You can buy this filter from us at https://qualitynishikigoi.com/product/30-k1-micro-bead-filter/ The Evolution Aqua Quartz Sleeve insulates the lamp from the water, allowing the lamp to operate at the optimum performance. E A Tempest Filters can be installed on a variety of set-ups. On larger systems that require a higher flow rate, multiple Tempest Filters can be installed in a modular system.

Continuing our long standing reputation for innovation, the Nexus Automatic System now enables Nexus owners to benefit from a fully automated cleaning cycle on their multi award winning Nexus filtration systems. Physically turning ball valves and manually switching pumps on and off will now be a thing of the past thanks to the Nexus Automatic System. All of the key processes that form the cleaning cycle are now controlled automatically with this easy to install kit.

Kit includes

With the pump turned off, slide valves closed, and waste valve open, air is drawn into the filter. As air and water mix inside the filter tube, the media starts to move chaotically, dislodging the trapped waste. Dirty water then exits the filter tube at the bottom via the waste line, leaving clean media. Simple to install on a variety of set-ups

The Tempest units can also be joined together. So, if you do have a larger pond and need a larger flow rate, this can be done by linking 2 together, giving twice the flow. Evolution Aqua filter media has been independently tested by Cranfield University and IFTS (Institut de la Filtration et des Techniques Séparatives).The Tempest Filter uses Evolution aqua's latest filtration media, K+Media, to deliver crystal clear, healthy water. This is a 4000 gallon pond which will be mainly used for quarantining larger Koi at our shop. This now makes our separate QT facility 8000 gallons in 5 ponds. Giving us one of the best QT systems in the UK. K + Media is designed and manufactured in the UK by Evolution Aqua. This advanced media, with its innovative design, and class leading surface area provides enhanced biological and mechanical filtration. These Dirty Harry pre-filters provide you with an additional tool to keep your pond clean. The Dirty Harry pre-filter ensures that larger waste solids in the pond water, such as leaves, small branches and larger algae particles are collected before they are caught up in the pump or in the filter. By pre-filtering the water, you prevent larger particles from clogging up or overloading the filter. For those Koi and pond enthusiasts who are not as careful as they might be, we do also sell the spare Evolution Aqua Quartz Sleeves in the most standard sizes.

This technique will be applied to your application for online finance. Credit scoring works by awarding points for each answer given on the application form such as age, income and occupation, together with information obtained from credit reference agencies. They help save the service life of the pond pump is protected because large particles will not damage the impeller of the pump. This information allows consistent decisions to be provided, ensuring all applicants are treated fairly. Credit scoring does not discriminate on the grounds of sex, race, religion or disability.
