Installation：

Open both, front and back clasps. See diagrams 1.1 and 1.2. Now, open the main pre-filter. Connect the additional pre-filter to the main pre-filter. See diagram 2. Close the main pre-filter. Close and secure both clasps. See part list diagrams for model BH-1000AD and BH-2000AD fountain head installation. There are different options of the fountain head. Choose the appropiate setting depending on the application. Place the pump in desired location. If pump is placed in a pond, raise the pump off the bottom of the pond by a minimum of 6 inches. Start the ViaAqua® Pond Pump.

Installation：

SUBMERSED

1. Place pump in the desired location. If pump is placed in a pond, raise the pump off the bottom of the pond by a minimum of 6 inches.
2. Use Teflon tape to connect the universal elbow or coupler to the output of the pump.
3. Place the o-ring onto the barbed pipe adapter. Then, use the Teflon tape to hand tighten the barbed pipe adapter to the universal elbow or coupler. See diagram A.
4. Connect the flexible tubing to the barbed pipe adapter. Ensure water tightness with a hose clamp.
5. Connect to filtration or water feature.

FOUNTAIN HEAD

1. Place pump in the desired location. If pump is placed in a pond, raise the pump off the bottom of the pond by a minimum of 6 inches.
2. Use Teflon tape to connect the universal elbow or coupler to the output of the pump.
3. Install the fountain head properly. See details in diagram B.
4. The diverter valve enables water flow to be directed to either a water feature, TerminatorTM UVC Sterilizer, or a pressure pond filter.

Maintenance：

If water decreases, it is a clear sign that debris is in the impeller or the pre-filter is clogged. It is the aquarist’s sole responsability to ensure the pump is maintained. Failure to properly maintain the pump will cause permanent damage to the pump.

• Recommended routine maintenance: every 30 days.
• Tools required: Philips screw driver.

1. Disconnect the pump from the GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) power supply prior to removing the pump from the water.
2. Release all four latches from the pre-filter. Rinse all the debris out of the pre-filter.
3. Remove the C-clamp.
4. Loosen the four large screws on the volute. Then, remove the volute.
5. Once the volute is removed, clean it well.
6. Remove the impeller and clean it well. Verify the impeller is free of all dirt and debris.
7. Once cleaned, place the impeller back into the motor. Guide holes on the impeller plate, so they match with the pins on the volute. The impeller should sit flush on the volute.
8. Reassemble. If necessary add a small amount of silicone lubricant to the gasket in the volute to ensure a proper seal.
9. Start the ViaAqua® Multi-Duty Pond Pump.

Specifications：

PRESSURE POND FILTER with UVC Sterilizer The ViaAqua® Terminator UVC Sterilizer features a PL bulb. The sterilizer uses a quartz sleeve to maintain the bulb temperature, thus allowing 95% of the UVC radiation to sterilize the water. The internal burning chamber is designed for maximum contact time, which produces more UVC radiation than comparable UVC units. The increased of contact time exposes virtually all organic, single celled algae and eradicates the most harmful microoganisms.

Installation：

TYPICAL OPERATION For proper filtration, operate the pressure pond filter 24 hours a day, year round.

Start the ViaAqua® pond pump. Verify that all seals and connections are not leaking.

BACKWASH OPERATION

Remove the cap from the backwash/drain port. Connect a barbed fitting with a piece of tubing and secure with a hose clamp. To activate backwash, turn off the pond pump and switch the flow control knob so that the arrow points to the backwash/drain discharge port. Turn the pond pump back on. Drain the water into a sewage system or garden.

Backwashing filter should be performed at least once a week. The filter needs to be cleaned when: – Dirty/cloudy water is in the filter. – Reduced water flow.

Maintenance：

FILTER SPONGES
When backwashing, if the filter does not produce expected results, it is necessary to clean or replace foam media. This should be performed at least once a season. However, this is not a rule for pond and outdoor environments vary thus more frequent cleaning may be required.

1. Unplug the Terminator UV Sterilizer and turn the pond pump off.
2. Disconnect the barbed fitting from the filter.
3. Flip out safety lock and remove lid retainer clamp.
4. Remove the lid of the filter. Handle with care. The UV bulb and quartz sleeve is made of glass.
5. Remove the intake and output flares.
6. Remove and rinse foam pads. Replace them if necessary.
7. Remove the bio-chamber and rinse well with pond water only. Biological media beneficial bacteria will be killed if tap water is used to rinse.
8. Remove and rinse pre-filter foam pads. Replace them if necessary.
9. Rinse and clean the filter body.
10. Place the filtering media back in their original locations. Replace intake and output flares.
11. Replace o-ring and verify that it is clean. We recommend using a small amount of silicone lubricant on the o-ring to ensure a proper seal.
12. Secure lid with lid retainer clamp. The lid retainer clamp must be aligned so that the notches in the top of the clamp fit under the intake and discharge port.
13. Filter is ready to use. See installation instructions.

REPLACEMENT OF UV BULB (UV Model)

1. Follow all the safeguards and warnings of the manufacture.
2. Before doing any maintenance on the UV sterilizer, the power supply and water supply must be disconnected.
3. Only in rare situations does the quartz sleeve ever have to be removed. If necessary loosen screws carefully, then remove the quartz sleeve. If excess force is used the quartz sleeve will break. After removed, use a soft clean cloth to gently remove any excess grim and/or debris. Reassemble using a small amount of silicone lubricant placed on the o-ring prior to sliding it into the main body of the UV sterilizer.
4. The UV bulb needs to be replaced every 8,000 to 9,000 hours. This will ensure optimum performance.
5. The efficiency of the Terminator UV Sterilizer depends on the duration the UV light is in contact with water. Thus the rate of water flow, not the way the water travels, will relate to the efficiency of the UV sterilizer.
