Know before you buy
Selecting the right wattage depends on your total pond volume and the amount of direct sunlight your pond receives. The Teton Professional series offers options from 16W to 120W, capable of supporting ponds up to 14,000 gallons; we recommend sizing up if your pond has a high fish load or limited shade.
Yes, the unit features 2-inch variable directional ports designed for easy integration. These flexible ports allow you to adjust the plumbing orientation to fit your current setup without needing complex modifications.
The 16W model features a durable aluminum housing, while the higher-wattage models (25W–120W) are constructed from stainless steel. Stainless steel is used on the larger models to provide superior UVC reflectivity and increased structural longevity.
This UV clarifier is specifically designed to eliminate free-floating, single-celled algae that cause 'green water.' It will not remove string algae or debris that is already attached to rocks or pond liners.
The unit is backed by a 5-year warranty on the housing and a 2-year warranty on the ballast. This ensures long-term protection for the core components of your filtration system.
The clarifier is engineered to handle flow rates between 2,250 and 7,000 GPH depending on the model. It is important to stay within the manufacturer's recommended flow range to ensure the water has sufficient contact time with the UV light to effectively neutralize algae.
