INTRODUCING THE EAZYPOD COMPLETE Congratulations on purchasing an Evolution Aqua EazyPod Complete. The EazyPod Complete is an adaption of one of Evolution Aqua’s most successful filters, the EazyPod. The EazyPod Complete is a mechanical and biological filter system with an integrated 18 Watt UV clarifier. The EazyPod Complete is ideal for all ponds of up to 10,000litres.
The K1 media is cleaned and moved by connecting an air pump to the air line (D) in the EazyPod Complete, which in turn goes to an air ring (H) in the base of the inner chamber (C). The air ring has small holes in it which causes the K1 media to move and therefore clean itself.
This is the time that it takes for the total water volume of the pond to pass through the filter system once. On EazyPod Complete ponds, where it is used as the only filtration system, a total pond volume turn over of every 1 to 2 hours is required.
INSTALLATION PLEASE NOTE: EazyPod Complete is designed to be used on a Pump Fed set-up only. We do not recommend installing the EazyPod Complete on a Gravity Fed set-up. The diagram below shows the EazyPod Complete on a typical Pump Fed set-up.

4. Tip: When connecting to your air pump, cut an inch from the airline supplied on the EazyPod Complete. Insert this into the hose pipe that connects to the air pump. This will help maintain the hosepipe’s rigidity when inserting it into the rubber connector and clip supplied with your air pump.

“appropriate fall” from the EazyPod Complete to the pond. The pipe work from the pond pump to the inlet of the EazyPod Complete will need to be connected to the 1.5 inch (50mm) slide valve (M). The 4 inch / 90-115 mm (minimum) gravity return pipe work will need to be connected to the rubber adaptor (J) on the outlet point of the EazyPod Complete.
Now that you have your EazyPod Complete installed, you will need to connect your air pump to the EazyPod Complete for the cleaning cycle. This will agitate the K1 media so that the waste which has collected in the media can be removed from the system.
K1 MEDIA INSTALLATION Now that you have your EazyPod Complete installed, you will need to add the 30 litres of K1 Media that was supplied with the EazyPod Complete. Simply empty the entire bag into the inner chamber (C). CONNECTION TO THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY Electrical installations must be done by a qualified electrician.
COMMISSIONING & SWITCHING ON THE EAZYPOD COMPLETE Before you run your EazyPod Complete, you should first check that you have installed the filter and pipework correctly. Having taken a last look at your pipework to ensure that everything looks right, switch on the circulating pond pump, and check for any leaks.
December with no food fed. Be aware that any movement of the K1 Media in the EazyPod Complete whilst the pond pump is in operation will dislodge the waste collected and will be sent back to the pond and clarity will suffer.
(M) on your inlet pressure line and switch off the pump. 9. Allow the K1 media to agitate again for a minimum of two minutes. 10. Open valve (K) to drain again. If the water in the EazyPod Complete is still not 100% clean, repeat the process.
