At H2O Designs, we believe in all-natural ecosystem filtration as the best approach for maintaining a balanced, self-sustaining pond. However, we also recognize that some pond designs and environmental conditions require additional filtration to ensure clean, clear, and healthy water. Whether you’re struggling with green water, excessive string algae, or murky conditions, our pond experts can help you select the best filtration system for your needs.
At H2O Designs, we specialize in custom filtration solutions for all types of ponds and water features. Whether you need a simple UV clarifier or a complete multi-stage filtration system, our pond experts will help you make the right choice.
Pressurized Pond Filters
Pressurized pond filters provide high-efficiency filtration and work well in ponds that experience heavy debris or fish waste. These systems offer:
- Easy Maintenance – Many models include a backwash system for effortless cleaning.
- Compact Design – Can be placed out of sight for a cleaner pondscape.
- Biological & Mechanical Filtration – Helps remove waste and support beneficial bacteria.
UV Filtration for Green Water Control
If your pond suffers from persistent green water, a UV (Ultraviolet) clarifier might be the perfect solution. These systems work by exposing pond water to UV light, which helps eliminate free-floating algae and harmful microorganisms. UV filtration is an excellent addition to an existing filtration system to improve water clarity.
Mechanical Skimmers for Debris Removal
Skimmers act as the first line of defense for pond filtration. These systems:
- Capture Floating Debris – Leaves, twigs, and uneaten fish food are removed before they sink.
- Protect Your Pump – Prevents clogging and improves pump longevity.
- Enhance Water Circulation – Keeps surface water moving for better oxygenation.
Bio-Friendly Waterfall Filters
Waterfall filters combine biological and mechanical filtration, making them one of the best natural filtration options. These systems:
- Encourage Beneficial Bacteria Growth – Essential for breaking down fish waste and organic matter.
- Enhance Water Clarity – Helps maintain balanced water chemistry.
- Create a Beautiful Waterfall Aesthetic – Blends seamlessly into natural pond designs.
