29 Mar 2017
Aquascape Supplies Australia has a range of options available for your wetland filtration system needs, with the correct products and their industry experience, your water features will be fit and filtering in no time!
Historically, water quality issues of traditionally designed retention ponds, lakes or dams are prone to algal overgrowth and declining water quality due to the accumulation of sediment. These issues are commonly tackled through inappropriate chemical usage and algal weeding maintenance, which results in prolonged frustration and less than satisfactory results for your projects.
A wide range of these issues, however, can be tackled with the Aquascape® patented Snorkel and Centipede wetland system. Incorporating a step-by-step modular approach, the design takes the guesswork out of filtering the water body, delivering a healthy eco system and reducing the ongoing associated costs while providing an aesthetic element for all to enjoy.
The benefits of using the up-flow wetland filters include:
- Scalable in size from small backyard ponds to large acreage lakes and dams
- Effective means of maintaining excellent water quality
- Aquascape Snorkel Vault and Centipede modules simplify construction
- Reduces short-term and long-term maintenance costs
- Use of Firestone EPDM rubber liner allows flexibility in size and shape
- Easily retrofitted to existing bodies of water
- Addition of intake bays can aid in surface weed collection
- Return water flow can aid in oxygenation and create a decorative element such as a stream or waterfall
- Snorkel clean-out vault allows for easy sediment removal, reducing the need for costly and invasive dredging
- Works on earth bottom and liner membrane ponds, lakes and dams
- Ideal for retention pond construction and restoration
- Adds a natural aesthetic element to the pond, lake or dam design with the addition of plants and rock
