"When asked about the comparatively low flow rates for the units, a Hagen spokesman explained that the Hydrotech Monitor allowed the units to be run at optimum efficiency by warning the user when flow rates had dropped, and that cartridges could be cleaned or replaced so quickly and easily that they may run as efficiently as competitors models with faster initial flow rates."
In other words, keep rinsing your filter cartridge all the time because we made it easy to do, and the fluval G will run as efficiently as your other filters do when they're clogged with fish crap. Yup, big step forward there.
lol agreed.
hey everyone look! we made a filter that you have to clean way more often than everyone elses, it has lower flow rates, and it costs way more too!
come and buy it! lol
