Description

Brush Pre-Filter 800mm / 400mm

The Brush Pre-Filter range (800mm and 400mm) provides powerful mechanical filtration to remove debris before it reaches your main pond filtration system. Designed for koi ponds, ornamental ponds, and high-flow water systems, these units use dense brush media to trap leaves, fish waste, algae, and fine suspended solids—helping to keep water cleaner and reduce maintenance on downstream equipment.

Available in two sizes, this range allows you to choose the right capacity for your pond setup.

Available Sizes

800mm Brush Pre-Filter

  • Ideal for large ponds and high-flow systems
  • Maximum filtration capacity for heavy debris loads
  • Suitable for koi ponds and commercial installations

400mm Brush Pre-Filter

  • Ideal for small to medium pond systems
  • Compact design for limited installation space
  • Efficient pre-filtration for lighter debris loads

Key Features

  • High-density brush media for superior mechanical filtration
  • Captures leaves, fish waste, and fine suspended particles
  • Reduces strain on bio filters and UV clarifiers
  • Durable, weather-resistant construction for outdoor use
  • Easy-access design for quick cleaning and maintenance
  • Suitable for continuous pond system operation
  • Helps stabilise overall filtration performance

Benefits

✔ Improves water clarity by removing solid waste early
