the pond. Bottom drain base has six stainless screws and two
rubber gaskets for a positive seal when penetrating the liner!
Connects to 3" PVC pipe and fittings. Air diffuser is set up for
½" tubing, recommended air flow of ½ to
2 CFM.

Bottom Drain
The TetraPond Bottom Drain is an important accessory for achieving optimal water quality. Installed at the deepest point of the pond, this superbly engineered device encourages debris and waste to flow into a circular collection
chamber.
Once in the circular chamber it is then carried away underground via standard 3" PVC pipe (not included) to a disposal area away from the pond.
This vacuum drain can be installed without cutting the liner: simply locate in the deepest part of the pond and connect to 2" flex PVC pipe, remove waste and debris easily.

Bottom Drain Kits
Many pond builders have found that adding a bottom drain helps keep a pond cleaner. Fish waste and other muck that accumulates on a pond bottom can be easily removed by a bottom drain. Ponds that are over 2' deep can become
stratified without a bottom drain. The bottom drain is installed under the liner. Flex PVC pipe carries the water under the liner to the skimmer box. A bulkhead fitting is installed in the skimmer. A PVC male adapter connects the flex PVC to the bulkhead fitting. A valve is placed inside the skimmer box to control flow. When the pump is turned on, water will flow into the skimmer through the skimmer faceplate (surface water) as well as the bottom drain. You can control how much water goes in thru the top/bottom inlets with the valve on the bottom drain. Bottom drain kits include
an EBD bottom drain (above), a bulkhead fitting, a valve and fittings. Does not include PVC pipe. 2" kit recommended for PS1 skimmers, 3" for PS2 skimmers.
