BLUWAVE filter maintenance
The main maintenance procedures we recommend are:
A Rinsing all the mechanical filtration sponges at least every 2-3 weeks (11).
B Replacing the mechanical filtration sponges at least every 6 months.
C The effect of the adsorbent sponge ceases in about 2-3 weeks; we therefore advise, if necessary, replacing it with a
Ferplast replacement sponge available from leading retailers or leaving it in the filter to perform a mechanical function.
In any case, it should be changed at least every 6 months (12).
D During periods when the fish are being treated with a solution added to the water for illness or disease, the adsorbent
sponge should be removed from the filter (so this does not reduce the beneficial effects of the treatment). When the
treatment is over, we recommend putting in a new sponge.
E Always keeping the filter intake grilles clean.
F Checking the pump at least every 6 months and cleaning it when necessary in the following way:
• unscrew the filter top;
• remove the pump unit, adsorbent sponge and return pipe from the filter, pulling it upwards (12 a);
• remove the pump from the return pipe, remove the front section and remove the rotor (13);
• remove any lime scale or impurities with the soft brush BLU 9037 (never use detergents or chemical substances);
• re-assemble the unit following these instructions in reverse.
G The biological materials should not be washed. Therefore, we suggest never removing them from the filter so they retain
their active bacterial properties.
