About This Product

Improve the water quality in your pond with the pondboss Universal Pump Filter Box. This compact filter is suitable for maintaining healthy, clean, and clear ponds using your choice of pond pump between 300 GPH - 800 GPH. It's best suited for use as a filtration system in ponds up to 500 gallons or a pre-filter in ponds over 500 gallons. This sturdy, impact resistant plastic filter box houses and protects against large debris for most pond pumps. The coarse black filter catches large debris, while the fine blue filter catches small debris. The included filter pads and bio-balls biologically clean the water, promoting a healthy ecosystem in your pond. Ideal for versatile use, the round opening in the lid allows the use of a nozzle kit or tubing up to 1.25 in. outer diameter (OD). The black color of the filter box blends in naturally with surroundings, making it perfect for any project. We recommend changing the filter pads yearly for best results.

Questions & Answers

Will this connect to a single connection pump?

Answer This Question

Hello. The pond boss universal pump is ideal for use in ponds up to 500 gallons. To operate at best performance, use with your choice of pond boss pump between 225 GPH - 800 GPH (pump not included). You may use it for a single connection pump if the output is connected on the top of the pump since the outtake connection is on the top of the lid. We hope this helps. Your smartpond Water Gardening Specialist, Natalie.

    Hello Gigi. We thank you for your inquiry. We do not recommend using it in an Urn Fountain as it designed for ponds. You may use our Lit Container Fountain Kit, https://thepondboss.net/collections/nozzle-kits/products/lit-container-fountain-kit. We hope this helps. Your pond boss Water Gardening Specialist, Mary

      Works great, just wish it was another inch or two bigger. Not sure the top tabs will last long.

      I needed it more for my Trough/pool. It's been years since I've dealt with one of these. I could've really just taken everything out cept the filter floss as I didn't need the bio balls. I also forgot that the black coarse filter is usually carbon/charcoal which defeats the purpose of me running chlorine in my pool, so I took that out. I needed something that would stand my water pump upright AND filter out the water without the biological filtration. Basically this is a makeshift pool filter for me.

      Good small pump
      A very good pump. Just the right strength for my smaller pond (4x1 ft and 1.5 ft deep). Adjusts easily. With the filter box, keeps the water clear and aerated and gives up to 2 foot fountain (though I adjusted it to lower than that).

      Works wonders for my pond. I was having issues with keeping it clear and the filtering system is easy to install, works well with my existing pump, and my fish are happy. It fits perfectly in my smaller pond as well, you don't even know it is there until you go to clean it.
