Ultima II 2000 and UV Filter Install... Help please!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Looks good to me, glad your setup is working out well, I would agree with your thought that the UV probably need slower flow going through it to be most effective. Thanks for the video love the rays.

With the head losses I bet the flow is closer to 2500 gph. Can't seem to find a pump curve or chart for this Laguna 4200...

Laguna 2011 product catalog: http://www.lagunaponds.com/lagunaeng/careguides/2011-Laguna-Catalogue.pdf

If your pump is the newer PT8256 model then check out either the 2012 or the 2013 product catalog. If your pump is the older (2011) model # PT352, then you'll want to look at the 2011 product catalog.

I never understood why people are opposed to having these pumps run the smaller Ultima II filters...if they provide the flow required at the suggested head pressure then there is no reason they wouldn't work well. Glad to hear it's working well for you.

This is great info. Next will be a glass filter when I can afford oneto really get things clear.
