INSTALLING YOUR

 

ALLCLEAR

 FILTER:

•  Run the AllClear™ Filter 24 hours a day. 
•   DO NOT operate the AllClear™ Filter with 

a pump larger than the maximum flow 

rate indicated by the filter specifications.  

Operating with a pump larger than 

recommended can reduce the filters  

 

 

effectiveness and cause damage to the 

filter or UV and will NOT be covered under 

warranty.

•   DO NOT operate during freezing 

conditions. Disconnect, drain and store the 

AllClear™ Filter in a protected area.

Determine the Location

The AllClear™ Filter is pressurized and may be installed in 
any location outside of the pond on a solid surface. Avoid 
locations that are prone to water puddles or areas where 
the filter could fall into the pond. Filters may be left above 
ground but it is recommended to partially bury the filter  
in the ground, leaving only the clamp and filter canister  
top exposed. 

Measure

MEASURE across the top of the filter and add an inch on 
each side. This will be the diameter you will need to dig  
the hole.  

Then tip the filter on its side and measure the length staying 
2” below the filter clamp. This will be the installation depth. 

Attach the Fittings

ATTACH the step down fittings to the inlet and outlet of the 
AllClear™ Filter with the compression ring.  Note: The o-rings 
should be between the filter housing and the step down 
fitting to create a watertight seal when secure. 

Cut the Fittings

CUT step down fittings down to the largest connection 
that will work with your plumbing. Step down fittings offer 
options for use with 1”, 1-1/4” and 1-1/2” plumbing. Note: 
AllClear™ Filter 1200 connects only to 1” plumbing so this 
step is not necessary. 

Connect the Plumbing

CONNECT the plumbing and secure with a hose clamp. 
Arrows on the filter inlet and outlet indicate the direction of 
water flow. Plumbing from the pump should be connected 
to the inlet with the arrow pointing in towards the filter and 
the discharge plumbing connected to the outlet with the 
arrow pointing out away from the filter. 

Plug in Pump

PLUG in your pump, then plug the UV power cord into a 
standard 120-volt GFCI protected outlet. You will see a glow 
in the viewing window on top of the filter while the unit  
is functioning.

TrueRock™ Medium Boulder Cover

To camouflage and protect the AllClear™ Filter from the 
outside elements use a TrueRock™ Medium Boulder 
Cover(#510332). 

Dig the Hole

DIG the hole to the measured specifications. Insert the 
filter and turn so the inlet and outlet are positioned for the 
easiest connection to your plumbing. Once in place, backfill 
with dirt.
