Part one of the first look at the new Plus Advanced filter from Evolution Aqua.
This is collection and installation.
They look a great unit. They are no different to the existing K1 Micro Bead apart from...they are using the new Kplus Media. Which is used in the Nexus filters.
We are installing this inside where we have no debris. So we can run straight from the drain.
I will update the running this week and go through more information.,
Looks interesting BUT I have been running my own modified 24" sand filters ×2 on 3000 gallon conservatory pond for about 10 years and the k1 is moving both units run on 8000 superfish pump also run nexus 200 and it works
I agree Wayne, it’s hardly new technology, iv run bead filters for years and to be honest find the beads a better than K1 micro for filtration and biological purposes.
Struggling to see what’s new, but I suppose the small one would do a much better job than the tempest! Agree on the beads rather than K1.
Exciting stuff, can’t wait to see it running 👍🐟🈲😊
Evening Tim, Look like a good bit of kit like the new look and your fitter is a pipe wizard :)
It was so hot!!
Looks like another quality product but it's just a shame they don't have a working telephone or email system where they reply to customer problems or issues. Very frustrating.
They are working on it 👍🏻
@@TimWaddington Thanks Tim, I am forever pulling crushed micro K1 out of my drum. I sent you the same email, not your problem I must add but just a hope the email got through. Stay safe
@@CATANDEYEKOI they have a new team so hopefully will start to improve
@@TimWaddington 🙏🙏🙏
Hi. Which air blower are you using?
Nice neat job,well done that Man!
You TEASE, Tim......lol. Looks good.
All good stuff fella, looking forward to your new bead give away!👍👌
Good idea!
@@TimWaddington I’m full of those Tim, I mean listen to this, Tim’s three F’s giveaway Filtration, Fibreglass, and Fish 😂😂😂
@@garethlindsay4042 haha, it’s been asked before. Deffo doing a giveaway for when we hit 20k subs
Sorry I watched again and you say in the video lol thanks
You can’t Glue it like that 😛😛😛
Looks like a good bit of kit 👍👍👍
Could you put a bead for a bakki shower
Pumping 30000 litres?
OK, great but me being an amateur needs ro know why a bead filter? Over the pod you removed?
I will explain more in PT2
How much micro is used in the 24” and dose it come with filter thanks
They can’t support spares for the old models. Pathetic!
Wondering if you could answer me a question thinking of getting one of these but I’ve run my pipework in 1 1/2 inch on the website it says it must be 2 inch direct from the filter to the pond will it cause any issues having three 1 1/2 inch inlets or do I to change the whole thing to 2 inch
It won’t make that much difference. The 20” model is on 1.5”. Obviously nicer to have 2” but not a deal breaker
@@TimWaddington i’m thinking of getting the 30 inch one mate
@@hillsy5976 if you are getting the 30” mate would work much better in 2”.
@@TimWaddington thank mate and thanks for the fast response 👍👍
Can we use gravity fed to the bead instead of pump fed?
With the bead you can place the pump after and suck from it, so yes it can be used for gravity. Exactly like the one we fitted on our new pond.
@@TimWaddington Thank you. Hope you will show the gravity fed setup on your new pond in future video.
@@lateboomer88 there are videos of it on the channel
I would definitely put a bypass kit on it, I guess EA haven’t done one yet though. Less pressure on the pump. For me it’s all about if k1 does a better job than actual beads, so could do with a normal bead for comparison. I was always told to use a sieve or something similar before a bead so be interesting to see if that’s an issue or not. Hopefully EA do a auto version at some point like the easy pods.
An automatic bead would be great. Just can’t see it with the air release.
@@TimWaddington wouldn’t it be a similar mechanism attached to the multi port valve as what they already use on nexus?
@@rich81090 the automation would be easy but there is a air release valve on top of the actual bead. That’s the stumbling block, but mate, they have some clever people up there
@@TimWaddington would be interesting, it’s the one thing I hate about my Bead repeatedly doing the backwash cycle, as once is never enough.
@@TimWaddington Automatic air release valves are common in industrial tank installations. I've installed many at work on boilers, high points in building pipe work, and many other locations. Cheap and automatically releases air.
Do these(probably insanely priced) units not come complete so you have don't to weld them yourself?
No because you couldn’t ship them. Also you can extend the valve if needed.
@@TimWaddington fair enough
He had a lot of problems fitting that up that’s why you had to cut out some sections
Or… EA were filming too so I couldn’t film everything. 🤷♂️
