    I just installed the new Danner 40 watt into my bowl of pea soup. After about 3 days I have the clearest water I have ever had. It is simply perfect.
  • Also it is very important that your pump flow meets the specifics of your UV filter. If your pump has a higher flow rate than your UV filter requires the water and algae will not be under the light long enough to kill the algae. Again I have learned this the hard way.!!!
  • I don’t see how your electric is supplied to the unit. Also does it have a ballast for the bulb? I used one that simply plugs it. I also set it up so I can take the bulb out to clean as needed. Also it’s recommended you replace after 8000 hr of usage. Definitely solves the algae problem. I like your waterfall !!
  • How did you measure the GPM through the UV light? If the water runs too fast it will not work effectively.
  • Best tutorial ever on the uv clarifier installation thank you sir. Does the pond pump water pressure have to be considered for caution or is it just controlled by the valves adjustment-into the clarifier
  • Can you tell me a/b your water fall? It's fantastic.
  • How long do you run the UV. Light for??i just installed one in my small 40gal guppy pond
  • 2 questions. Is it necessary for the two pvc pipes coming from the main pipe and connecting to the pipe holding the light to be a certain length? And how did you cover up the whole installation? Thank you. Great video😃
  • They will both Freeze. The PVC has a higher resistance to cracking in cold weather than ABS. I do not know if the black flex pipe is ABS or not. FYI only trying to help.
  • @MrFalch
    Hi If the manual (on my Hailea 36w) says nothing about inlet and outlet of the flow from the pump,will that mean it doesn't matter which one of the two connectors you going in with the water and out?
  • @IFlySRQ
    What did you do to cover up the UV light and PVC pipes? And is there a smaller version of this?
  • I'm a novice so bare with me if I install the uv light from my return water then into filter box how does it not kill my good bacteria on my foam pads? Help pleas
  • idk if anyone else commented, but this is installed backwards, so you're only sterilizing beneficial bacteria leeched from your filters. You're cleaning the water before it gets to the UV light by putting it after the filter in the system ... you need to put it before the filter for it to be most effective.
  • If my flex pvc is buried 18inch under, it is difficult to put uv light horizontal at the same level as pipe. Can we put uv light above ground level right over pvc pipe?
  • 90 degree connectors are not good for free flow of water.
