Laguna ClearFlo Kits Keep Ponds Clean and Healthy

A beautifully clean pond is easy to achieve with Laguna's simple and cost effective ClearFlo kits. Each kit includes a Pressure Flo Filter and Max-Flo pump.

A clean pond is easy to achieve with Laguna's simple and cost effective ClearFlo kits. Each kit includes the newest, most efficient and easy to maintain Pressure Flo Filter and Max-Flo Pump. They're designed to keep ponds up to 4,000 gallons in size clear and healthy with minimal maintenance.

Buying the equipment together saves time and money. With advances like Click-Fit fast connectors, setup is literally a snap. The technology was designed to provide a simple setup with a solid, long-lasting construction.

The Laguna Pressure Flo Filter and Laguna Max-Flo Waterfall & Filter Pump work in tandem to clear solids, then filter and clean water. The pump is designed to circulate water loaded with moderate amounts of solid particles and transport them to the Pressure Flo Filter.

The filter then collects water with a pressurized vortex where durable foam filters intercept and trap dirt and debris. This dirt-free water then passes along an integrated UV-C lamp, where it is exposed to ultraviolet rays that inhibit the growth of single-celled algae organisms. The thoroughly cleansed water then returns to the pond, keeping fish healthy.

The Max-Flo Pump is completely submersible and engineered to run continuously. Max-Flo is intelligently managed by Laguna's next generation Smart Pump Technology, a major technical advancement that further improves pump performance, energy efficiency, and user friendliness. SPT is an internal self-regulating system that tracks power consumption, hydraulics, and impeller direction to ensure powerful output and energy efficiency, so that only the required amount of power is used to operate the pump efficiently.

The new Pressure Flo Filters include improved UV bulbs (13 to 36 watts) guaranteed to KILL algae and eliminate green water. An LED indicator shows when the lamp is running. The Pressure Flo 2000 and 4000 models also include upgraded biological media (BioLava) to improve biological filtration. The large porous surface of the BioLava rocks promotes the growth of beneficial bacteria and has proven to be more effective at removing ammonia than traditional bio balls.

Packaging everything together in one kit makes setting up a new pond or replacing older filtration units with these leading edge designs a fast, simple and cost effective process. For more information contact your Rolf C. Hagen representative, visit www.hagen.com or call (800) 225-2700.
