Clear Water Guarantee Program - We guarantee clear water or your money back!

4 Steps to a Clear Water Guarantee

1. Determine your pond volume:

For circular ponds: Pond volume (gallons) = diameter (ft.) x diameter (ft.) x depth (ft.) x 5.9 
For rectangular ponds: Pond volume (gallons) = length (ft.) x width (ft.) x depth (ft.) x 7.5

2. Determine the fish load:

The more fish in the pond, the higher the nutrient load and the larger the filter system should be.

LIGHT - Planted ponds with few or no fish
MEDIUM - Planted ponds with 10 in. of fish per 100 gallons of water or less
HEAVY - Planted ponds with koi or 20+ in. of fish per 100 gallons of water 

3. Choose the correct filter system: 

Use the filter system chart to determine the appropriate filter system for your pond. 

4. Install and maintain the filter system:

Install the CWG products per installation instructions. Clean the filter as needed and replace the UVC bulb annually.

• Pressure Filter Systems, for medium ponds up to 8400 gallons. Fed by a filter pump in the bottom of the pond, BIOPRESS and FILTOCLEAR filters with integrated UVC Clarifiers are compact, simple to maintained and easily concealed. Sealed cannisters can be located near or far from the pond and return water up to 7’ above filter level. 
• Flow-Through Filter Systems, for medium to large ponds up to 39 000 gallons. Mount them above pond water level and add the right pump and UVC Clarifier to BIOSMART and BIOTEC SCREENMATIC filters, and these sequential filters will return crystal clear water back into even the largest ponds by gravity.
• Rotating Drum Filter Systems, for Koi Ponds and Natural Swimming Pools. The systems preferred by the pros, PROFICLEAR PREMIUM are sophisticated multistage filters that handle the largest and most demanding projects.
