CLEAN Solid Waste Filtering
The HydroMAX provides solid waste capture that is both effective and easy to maintain. Beginning with a selling chamber equipped with three-six inch filter brushes, intake water is slowed, allowing solid waste to settle or be trapped on the filter brushes where it easily removed. Secondary filter pads trap and hold fine solid waste and are also easily removed for cleaning.

BALANCED Bio Cell Biological Filtration
Our Bio Cell bio filter media is neutrally buoyant, creating a unique “moving bed” bio filter. The HydroMAX Bio Cell bio chamber is positioned after the filter brushes and the first filter pad. Thus supplying the Bio Cell media with pre-filtered water and creating an optimal environment for colonizing beneficial bacteria. Bio Cell media is proven with its self-cleaning, protected surface area design. Made of high impact polystyrene, Bio Cell provides a surface area of 198 ft.2/ft.3 with approximately 10,220 cells per cubic foot. This media is shipped ready-for-use in a mesh bag, providing containment and easy maintenance.

CRYSTAL CLEAR Effective UV Sterilization
Our 37-Watt internal UV Sterilizer provides constant protection against harmful waterborne bacteria and
nuisance algae.


RETRO-FIT Versatility
The HydroMAX Filter allows you to add on the bio chamber, 37-watt UV sterilizer or both after initial installation. A second UV sterilizer can be added for additional UV and flow rate capacity. Two molded-in, threaded bulkheads are standard
on every HydroMAX, allowing easy filter upgrades.
