Hi Gazza I am worried that if I put in much more K1 it won't turn over properly in the cleaning cycle but I do keep adding a bit to increase the thickness and am monitoring this. I suppose I could just chuck a load in and remove it if it doesn't clean. Regarding the pump, I am running an Aquamax 100...

Hi Gazza. Well I modded the static K1 'tray' to lift it up 50mm which in turn increased the thickness of K1 below. This is working very well to remove solids but I was still dissapointed with the fines I could see that were being pulled through. Seeing that the brushes were more or less clean I have...

Thanks for all the compliments everyone. Unfortunately I have not seen some of them until now as I have been able to get on the net as broadband for the entire street has been down for almost a month. Carl - I split it in half as I was uneasy about not being able to get to the waste outlet and hose ...

Kim - Not been been running it for a week yet but it seems to work in that my brushes are now clean. I have had a couple of cleaning trials and this seems to work well too. Only negative I have is that after turning it all over with air and refilling some particles do get washed on into the ret of t...

I was going to get exactly the problem you described so I have increased the surface area by adding an open channel to the transfer port.

Only been running a few days now but I don't get the drop in water in the next bay.

Multibay Vortex Static K1 Conversion
I have been giving this a lot of thought for some time. The original plan was to simply split the vortex down the middle but I had to rethink this once my filters were up and running with a larger Aquamax 10000 pump. In my fluid K1 bay the K1 is bunching up over the transport port due to the amount ...
