Because these beads float in water, they provide mechanical filtration.

Too often, the significant growth of koi and the expansion of their population are not taken into account. For multi-stage systems, a large space must therefore be reserved for the installation of the filter, whereas the dimensions of the EconoBead filters do not differ much from one model to another, because it is mainly the quantity of filter material (the number of beads) that is important.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe largest model requires no more than one square meter. We therefore recommend that you check the model table firstly for the (future) fish population of your pond, and secondly for the volume of your pond. For ponds and ponds without koi, we recommend that you double the pond volume indicated in the table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhich pump for an Econobead filter?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSince EconoBead filters are pressure filters, the pump must be installed upstream of the filter. Swimming pool pumps are generally suitable, but also some pond pumps with a delivery height of at least 6 to 7 metres. Do not forget to take into account the pressure loss due to the presence of the filter and the pipes. Make sure that the pump can still – at a resistance of 0.2 – 0.3 bar (2 to 3 metres) – have a pumping rate of half the pond volume per hour. When using the EconoBead Bypass system, it is possible to use pumps with a lower pressure, which allows for significant savings in electricity costs!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOnly for ponds?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e No, EconoBead filters are also perfectly suitable for freshwater or saltwater aquariums and have proven very effective for swimming ponds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eEconobead ByPass System\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"text-align: left;\" data-mce-style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cimg data-mce-fragment=\"1\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0009\/9221\/5099\/files\/00_dcbceeac-79f1-4c1f-bda3-5cff86ca5b7a_600x600.png?v=1635337362\" style=\"float: left;\" data-mce-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0009\/9221\/5099\/files\/00_dcbceeac-79f1-4c1f-bda3-5cff86ca5b7a_600x600.png?v=1635337362\" data-mce-style=\"float: left;\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e The bypass system allows the use of energy-saving pumps. Thanks to a very compact bypass system, the six-way valve is completely bypassed during filtration and the water flows in and out of the filter in a straight line. The pressure loss is thus at least 30% lower (depending on the pump type). The bypass system is very easy to install thanks to the threaded connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFittings: EB40\/50\/60: 50 mm.
