Tempest cleaning after 8 days! A LOT OF WASTE!!

- I was really happy with how much waste the 2 units have produced in 8 days.
This is from a skimmer line so its the surface waste that's getting through, the pond is really clear. I think we left it too long to clean and will now try a clean every other day for the next video.
Pre order

Glad I have pre-ordered 😊 thanks Tim for the update. Really cool.
Maybe an airline upgrade to help stir up the media on cleaning? Just a thought Aqua Evolution.
Tim’s in Denial on that one but yes it does but that will be the tempest II auto 😂
I can’t get over how simple and effective these units are. Im deciding how I get them included in my setup.
Great result Tim & simple to clean 👍
Great video, thanks. Great to see how these systems really work. Cheers. 👍
Looking Great & starting to work well now Tim
Catching lot muck from just skimmer feed 👍👍
Amazing how much they are catching. Very nice product and looks pretty cool aswell 😎 👌👍
Evening Tim, nice update good to see the K1 changing colour always good sign, some stunning Koi to bud, Thanks for sharing stay safe
These are working a right treat.👍🏼
Cracking bit of Kit Tim/Paul EA on to a winner with these a great add on to any pump fed system and the fines coming out are fab
Any chance you can dip a clear glass in , would show better on camera what is actually taken out.
Could I put one on an eazy pod pump fed and then in to my blade. At the moment I'm having to run a separate pump for the blade as it's 1.5inch and the return for the pod is 3 inch throughout. Don't want to be stopping the flow from the pod
Loving the video keep it up
Great video , ive added one of these to my multibay system which was coping biologically but not so good mechanically , ive had to put it before the multibay as im pump fed , its taking out lots of fines and after two days can see the difference in water clarity
Hi Tim, Would these work on a small quarantine system or temporary holding pond whilst extending main pond? Or would they need additional filtration? Thanks Ben
Yeah can’t see why not. Not massive though, up to around 800g
if u add aeration line. u can clean the unit until each k1 bead very clean
Great video, could you use these as a pre filter to a ASHP or would it need additional filtration as well Thanks
No I think before a ASHP or after would be fine
Wow surprised at that loads of fines there mate 👏👏
Probably going to install one at my next filterbuild
Would they be a good add on for eazypod pal, and where has them in stock
Perfect for a pod! They should be available in a few weeks
Alot like a canister filter for the aquarium. Can you remove the media to give it a rinse off? Great vidi 👍
Sealed units.
Would a better prefilter drum or rollermat eliminate the need for this and be more effective?
We were just testing the product. 👍
Hi mate, could you use this as a pre filter before a shower filter? Also what’s the availability for one
Cheers
Ryan
As long as it’s pumped through then yep no probs. They should be ready in around 2 weeks
Looks like it works well Tim, is there any way of doing a full empty and light wash of K1,seems like a lot of muck stuck to sides and to the K1..
I should have done it again. It only loses 5 gallons a clean so will now do more often.
Just a secondary question are they easy to take apart or are they plastic welded so you cannot open them.
You can unscrew the black nuts at the top and bottom. That’s it
I think they look like a great filter for fines to add onto a system and looking at one myself .. But !! I think there a is much better way of cleaning them .. one of the simply ways I've just thought of is to shut off both valves either side of the tempest .. then open the drain and drop the level inside by 4"- 6" or so then shut the drain again essentially lowering the level inside .. then instead of the gulping air process and not sure of how the valve works at the bottom or if this could be done but then attaching a air line to it and boil the filter basically like a eazy-pod but u have to open the top valve slightly to let the air escape but by dropping the level it shouldnt let the water return ..... Any ideas ???
Tim, is it an easy option to put them after the main filter and see what they take out?
Impossible I run around 15,000L per hour
@@TimWaddington Ok thanks
I am going to add one to one of our ponds on the filter line as soon as it arrives
Nice film. Like this filter very much. Ideal for a small pond. Maybe it's possible after the first cleaning to empty the measuere basket. Then you can see what filth comes out after the second cleaning. I like this system. Is it possible to use this filter in front of my shower filter? Is it correct that it works like a pressure filter. Sorry for my bad english.
Doing the video now... amazing
@@TimWaddington do you think it will be available in the netherlands?
@@Leon-uy5gr yes of course, EA have suppliers all over the world
seems to be alot of waste left in the media and around the sides. Would be nice to see how much waste goes back to the pond after the cleaning cycle?
lol you like chuckle brothers , but good gear
Just a small thought here Would it be a benefit if you added a small airstone into the filter?
I don’t believe so. If you add to much air the debris can settle on the top
Cheers tim..@@TimWaddington
Hi can I use PP treatment on 3 to 4 inch koi for trichodina and flukes thanks
PP won’t touch flukes but It will be okay for tric
@@TimWaddington thank you whats the price on you smaller koi you get
Glad I’ve preordered one through you Tim make sure mines the first out 👍🤞
Very impressive. Poor mans bead filter!
Going to use one on my grow on I'm building great space saver as they are doing the same job as a easy pod as far as I can see
Depending on size of grow on then fine.
@@TimWaddington it's only 5x3 foot 3 foot deep was going to pump from bottom drain into on of them and out through a shower. Do you think this would work?
I have not tried one on this type of set up but yes, I’m sure it will mate
Put a sheet of white plastic on the bottom of the blue tub or use a white one to show the muck better ????
I did an under water on one of the videos, was good
A shower of water from the top to aid flushing of solids stuck to the side perhaps?
See the newer video there is no solids stuck on sides.
Might work quite well before a shower filter
flow rate is a bit low for that.
I love the unit and Evolution Aqua products and all your videos. However clear water doesn’t necessarily mean healthy water. Love to see your test results from the ponds.
Was actually working on that today. PH 7.5, no nitrite and no ammonia. Nitrate 2
@@TimWaddington what about Phosphate? What testing kit you using and are you using a spectrophotometer?
They are certainly working and it’s great to see you’re experimenting with them in real life conditions. Has the pond become cleaner? Has the bead likewise also become cleaner. Do you think they are taking the dirt that the bead would eventually get or not?
The bead wasn’t as bad as I expected but I don’t know, it works really well anyway. Will be adding one to a Nexus pond soon
Certainly captures lots of solid and I see a lot of suspended waste too. Would be ideal after a pod and before a shower. Cheers Tim.
Not convinced, also you run a bead filter which I did for 6yrs. why is the bead not taking the fines out. I do feel they would be better with more k1 in them and definitely a air line to turn them over when cleaning.
If you look in the pond there are no fines at all. The Tempest are running from the skimmer, which is taking surface debris like any skimmer on any pond. The Tempest are not designed for a bottom drain.
The K1 is measured for the flow rate per unit. If you added more then the flow rate would be less
Where do you get them not on the EA website?
You can pre order from our website. Should be a few weeks
Why are you not using Air to mash it up more
Absolutely no need.
👍👍😍
Go on Paul 🤦♂️😂😂😆
If they are that good why don’t Japan use them or something like it ? Drum filters take all the fines out
Japan don’t use drum filters either, what’s your point?
They cost as much as a car and have almost as many parts!
In 5-10 years time let’s see how many are still working!
This is too expensive for what it does only 7 liters of k+ media, you could do something similar diy for a lot less money
Cool.
Yeah I’m sure they made one on blue Peter in 1989. All good if u like the home made vibe
@@alexw9177 can’t wait to see some of them! I bet they will be made out of a traffic cone with filter floss
@@TimWaddington 😂😂😂I’m just waiting for the washing up liquid to run out, so I can nab the bottle. Ps I’ve made pressure pipe out of bog roll, ingenious ......move over EA I’m coming
EA must be paying you enough to believe their hype. Any material compacted together will catch suspended crud. Its not rocket science so don't make it sound like it is :-(
Oh bore off.
Got to be honest, sorry but still not convinced there worth the money.
No worries 👍🏻
