Hozelock Vorton 11W UVC
In certain conditions, large quantities of microscopic algae grow in the water. They create the green water that spoils the appearance of a pond by making it impossible to see plants and fish.
It’s important not to confuse green water with the long strands of blanket weed that are also very common. Green water algae are so tiny that ordinary filters cannot trap them.
As the pond water passes the UV lamp, the light makes the algae clump together so they are caught in the filter foam or sink to the bottom of the pond. You should see an improvement in days and achieve complete clarity in 6 to 8 weeks.
A separate UVC can be connected into the hose run between the pump and filter.
The new Vorton 11 offers the optimum UVC power for the pond size up to 4000 litres. Higher 11W powered UVC bulb help maximise the elimination of algae. Vorton 11 comes with 5 metres of cable, is easy to install and maintain and comes with 2 years warranty and a Clearwater guarantee. Key Features: •For pond size up to 4000 litres •11w bulb
