HydroFlush™
HydroFlushing™ your Hydro Vortex™ waterfall filter just 30 seconds per day or 3 minutes per week uses MUCH LESS WATER annually than "pad-&-media-bag" style waterfall filters that are cleaned "once per year"! Keeping your Hydro Vortex™ filter and your pond or water feature clean all year round eliminates the need for complete draining and re-filling of the pond or water feature - saving even more water! You can even save and recycle and re-use your nutrient rich backwash water to irrigate and organically fertilize your lawn and garden with our HydroCology™ Water Recycling Systems!
HydroFlush™ now makes routine cleaning, rinsing, backwashing, and water changes with the revolutionary Hydro Vortex™ waterfall filters even quicker and easier. With HydroFlush™, you can backwash your Hydro Vortex™ waterfall filter for 30-60 seconds as often as you clean your HydroClean™ pond skimmer simply by turning two valves - without harming your biofilm! Your filter will always be clean and performing at its peak of efficiency! Your Koi and pond fish will thank you!
HydroFlush™ Backwash Systems for Hydro Vortex™ Waterfall Filters make cleaning and backwashing as easy as "turning two valves!" Your existing pump cleans the filter for you!
The HydroFlush™ Backwash System is easily installed during "New Construction" of pond and pondless waterfall features. It is also easily "Retro-fitted" onto existing Hydro Vortex™ pond and pondless waterfalls.
HydroFlush™ Backwash Systems consist of a 3-Way Diverter Valve that gets installed inside a valve box along the main plumbing line between the pump and the Hydro Vortex™ filter.
Water flows straight through the valve during normal "FILTER" operation. Water is diverted out the side of the 3-Way Valve to the HydroFlush™ Froth Jet during the "BACKWASH" cycle.
