The enhanced nitrification capacity makes this unit <strong>ideal for applications with high biofiltration needs<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>PolyGeyser filter technology <strong>pneumatically backwashes the media regularly<\/strong>, without manual intervention, moving parts, or controllers. This filter provides both mechanical and biological filtration with extremely low water loss by recycling its backwash water and only removing sludge after it has concentrated in the sludge chamber.<\/p>\n<p>This new design pairs the high pressure tolerance and flow rates attained in Propeller Bead\u00ae Filter models with the convenience and efficiency of a PolyGeyser. Now you can <strong>enjoy the ease of maintenance and save water<\/strong> with a PolyGeyser filter in high pressure applications.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/aquatic-systems\/support\/high-profile-polygeyser-filter-resources\/\"><b>See Documentation \u00bb<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.24.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/astfilters.com\/aquatic-systems\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/03\/HPPG-image-front.jpg&#8221; title_text=&#8221;HPPG-image-front&#8221; show_in_lightbox=&#8221;on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.24.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;2_5,3_5&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.24.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;2_5&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.24.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/astfilters.com\/aquatic-systems\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/07\/HPPG-image.jpg&#8221; title_text=&#8221;HPPG-image&#8221; show_in_lightbox=&#8221;on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.24.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; box_shadow_style=&#8221;preset1&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.24.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><i>HPPG used for a 45,000 gallon koi pond.

Introduced in 2015, the High Profile PolyGeyser\u00ae (HPPG) Filter is\u00a0perfect for high volume applications from large aquatic life support systems to wastewater treatment and clarification. Capable of handling large volumes of water under pressure, these PolyGeyser filters gently backwash the media, multiple times a day, to maintain a healthy biofilm. The enhanced nitrification capacity makes this unit ideal for applications with high biofiltration needs. PolyGeyser filter technology pneumatically backwashes the media regularly, without manual intervention, moving parts, or controllers. This filter provides both mechanical and biological filtration with extremely low water loss by recycling its backwash water and only removing sludge after it has concentrated in the sludge chamber. This new design pairs the high pressure tolerance and flow rates attained in Propeller Bead\u00ae Filter models with the convenience and efficiency of a PolyGeyser. Now you can enjoy the ease of maintenance and save water with a PolyGeyser filter in high pressure applications. See Documentation \u00bb HPPG used for a 45,000 gallon koi pond.
