Know before you buy
The module functions as a settling chamber by slowing down incoming water velocity. This allows sediment and excess nutrients to drop out of the water column before they can circulate, which significantly reduces the workload on your biological filtration.
Yes, the module is designed for easy retrofitting. Its modular, polyethylene construction allows it to be integrated into existing pond setups, provided you have the necessary space at the lowest point of your filter system.
The Large Centipede Module is specifically engineered to work with the Aquascape Large Snorkel Vault and Cap. These components work together to create a cohesive wetland filtration system.
Yes, the modular nature of the unit allows you to connect multiple modules to expand your filter size. This makes it a scalable solution for larger water features that require more substantial sediment removal capacity.
It is suitable for both earth-bottom and lined ponds. Its heavy-duty, rotationally-molded polyethylene construction is durable enough to handle the conditions of either environment.
The module is designed to decrease overall maintenance by capturing sediment at the source. While it simplifies the process, you should still periodically check the unit to ensure the discharge channels remain clear and functioning properly.
