Description

The filter lead time can be up to 2 or 3 weeks when manufacture is required. Due to the large size for transport, we need to quote on transport from the factory based on your address.

The Bubble Bead Filter (BBF) is ideal for Koi ponds and similar solids filtration applications. The BBF uses plastic beads and serves as both a mechanical and a biological filter. Often,  a ultra-violet sterilizer is placed in-line after the bead filter. The large filter that we supply is 500mm diameter and 1400mm in height. The smaller bead filter is 400mm in diameter and 1200mm high.

The price is for one complete filter with blower and the multiport valve as well as the media. Pictures are for illustration purposes and show 2 filters together and filters in other systems.

The ECOBBF-100 medium bead filter is for ponds up to 15000 liters.

The ECOBBF-200 large bead filter for ponds up to 25000 liters.

The pump is not included. The biggest suitable pump is a 1.1kw pump with a maximum of 18-20 m3 per hour due to the multiport valves. We supply the pumps.
