The New Hozelock Bioforce
The New improved Hozelock Bioforce, is a highly effective pond filter, with an easy clean capability, they come in 4 new sizes the 3000, 5500, 8000 and 12000 litres.
The Hozelock Bioforce is a pressurised system, which can be partially buried at the edge of the pond and used to run a waterfall. The New Hozelock Bioforce features are as follows:
Mechanical Filtration
More efficient and less cleaning- “through-flow course foams reduce filter cleaning, the foams are profiled creating a larger surface area for efficient removal of waste, layered foams make thorough cleaning easier.
Biological Filtration
Increased biological activity- the addition of “Kaldnes K3” bio media exclusive to Hozelock, scientifically proven and in widespread use in industrial water purification processes, results in vastly superior biological capacity compared to other biomedia used in pond filtration. When using the new “backflush” facility the water flow through the Kaldnes K3 media removes loose debris and old less active bacteria stimulating bacterial activity as a result.
UVC Filtration
UC Efficiency- The Hozelock maximum efficiency quartz sleeves allow 87% UV efficiency for treating algae compared with 30% and 50% for glass and plastic respectively. High-efficiency single ended UV lamps and a built in water turbulator ensures maximum water treatment and elimination of green water. The UV lamp has a bayonet type fitting allowing for quick lamp changing and cleaning as required. The Hozelock Bioforce is now equipped with a specially designed indicator so that the user can safely see if the UV lamp is operational and functioning.
Easy Cleaning
the Hozelock Bioforce range now has an easy clean “backflush” facility for flushing debris out of the filter thereby extending the time between thorough foam cleaning. This is also aided by the use of the new “flow through” coarse foams, which efficiently remove waste particles whilst also reducing cleaning frequency.
The well established strengths of the Hozelock Bioforce are still prominent in the new version. The fact that it is a compact pressurised system means it is ideal for pond keepers who want ease of use, clear water and a filter system hidden from view. The Hozelock bioforce is a pressurised system which means it is compact, with a less obtrusive container size which can be partially buried to hide it from view, the fact that it is pressurised also means that the filtered water can travel up to the top of a waterfall, without the need to place the filter at a high level.
