Connect the outlet of the BioSteps to a pipe leading back to the pond downhill. It is a gravity flow filter so it must be installed above the pond level so the outlet water can flow downhill over your waterfall or directly back to the pond. We sugggest you use 2 inch PVC pipe going downhill back to the pond and keep your pipe distance to less than 10 feet. If you are a longer distance away then you must raise the BioSteps higher in order to achieve good gravity flow back to the pond.
Waterfall Spillway Option!! Add the optional waterfall spillway to make an easy waterfall pouring directly from the filter back into the pond. This enables you to install the filter hidden in your waterfall or you can install it as a free standing unit.
Very versatile filter. This is our number one best seller.
