For permanent installations to the mains supply, it is necessary to conform to the regulations of the local 
electricity authority and this would include the use of a metal or plastic conduit to protect the cable.

Attention has been drawn to the fact that special rules may exist concerning the installation of your 
pond UVC (i.e. local building regulations).

This UVC must not be used in swimming pools, or areas where people are in contact with the water.

Always disconnect the mains electricity supply whilst the equipment is being installed, repaired, 
maintained or handled. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt about wiring this product to  
the mains supply.

Your Midipond filter has been designed to 
need a minimum of maintenance.

When the filter system is first installed filter 
cleaning  may be increased for a period until 
the back log of accumulated pond waste is 
removed.

IMPORTANT:

 Please note all electrical work on garden lighting and power installations must 

comply with part P of the building regulations. Failure to comply is a criminal offense. If the 
installation of this product is not carried out by a competent electrician who is registered under 
the Part P self-certification scheme then you must notify the local building control department 
before work begins. For further information and guidance on this matter and other electrical 
installations in your home that might be covered by the relevant legislation, contact your local
