NEW Evolution Aqua Tempest Filters
Set to Cause a Storm

Tempest – Innovative Pond Polisher with K+Media

Award winning aquatics company Evolution Aqua have
launched a new, innovative polisher for ponds, the
Tempest. The Tempest filter uses Evolution Aqua’s
K+Media to deliver crystal clear, healthy water.
Designed to be used in conjunction with any filtration
system, the Tempest offers additional mechanical and
biological filtration. The Tempest filter can also be used
on quarantine systems or as a standalone filter on
smaller ponds up to 5,000 Litres / 1,100 Gallons / 1,320
US Gallons.
The Tempest filter is easy to install and is simple and
quick to clean, by way of a unique, patent pending air
syphon design. During the cleaning process, air is
drawn into the filter as it empties which causes the
water to agitate, effectively cleaning the K+Media.

Using Evolution Aqua’s K+Media as the filter media,
particles down to one micron can be filtered. Not only
that, K+Media is the result of extensive research and
development, moulded with minerals for faster
maturation times.
Evolution Aqua filter media has been independently
tested by Cranfield University and IFTS (Institut de la
Filtration et des Techniques Séparatives).

How it Works
Water is pumped up through the Tempest filter. The
K+Media moves to the top of the filter, becoming a
mechanical barrier that traps debris as it flows through
the system. Waste is trapped in the K+Media until the
cleaning cycle dislodges it and it gets flushed away.
