AquaForte Power UV TL – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Below are the most common questions we receive about the AquaForte Power UV TL range. These FAQs are designed to help you understand the performance, compatibility, and installation of these UV clarifiers for koi ponds and garden ponds.

1. What is the AquaForte Power UV TL, and how does it work?
The AquaForte Power UV TL is a high-efficiency ultraviolet clarifier that helps control algae in pond water. It works by passing water over a UV-C lamp that exposes algae spores to UV light, effectively clumping them together so they can be removed by your filter system. This results in cleaner, clearer pond water with less green water and algae buildup.

2. What makes the TL model different from other UV clarifiers?
The TL series is an upgraded version of AquaForte’s popular Power UV range. It offers enhanced plumbing flexibility with 63mm connections and stepped hosetails (50/40/38/32 mm), making it compatible with a wide range of setups. The TL range is ideal for users looking for a more adaptable and powerful UV solution.

3. What are the available models in the AquaForte Power UV TL range?

✔ 30W TL Model – Comes with 3 x 63mm connections (1 capped)
✔ 55W TL Model – Also features 3 x 63mm connections (1 capped)
✔ 110W TL Model – Dual 55W UV lamps and 2 x 63mm connections for higher flow rates

4. What size pond is each model suitable for?
While actual coverage depends on flow rate, water volume, and exposure to sunlight, general guidelines are:

  • 30W TL – Suitable for ponds up to 15,000 litres

  • 55W TL – Suitable for ponds up to 25,000 litres

  • 110W TL – Suitable for ponds up to 50,000 litres or heavily stocked koi systems

5. Can I use the AquaForte Power UV TL with flexible hose?
Yes. Each model comes with multi-step hose tails (32/38/40/50 mm), allowing you to easily connect flexible pond hose. These adaptors provide a secure fit for a wide range of plumbing options.

6. How should I install the Power UV TL unit?
Installation is simple:

  • Mount the unit horizontally in-line with your pipework

  • Choose either rigid pipe or use the included stepped hose tails

  • Ensure correct flow direction through the UV chamber

  • Connect to your filtration system and power supply

We recommend installing it after your mechanical filter for optimal clarity.

7. How often should I replace the UV lamp?
The UV-C lamp should be replaced every 8,000 to 10,000 operating hours (around once a year) to maintain full sterilisation performance. Even if it still lights up, its effectiveness diminishes over time.

8. Is the AquaForte Power UV TL energy-efficient?
Yes. The UV lamps used in the Power UV TL series are designed to provide effective sterilisation while consuming minimal energy. They are efficient and reliable, making them a smart choice for ongoing pond clarity.

9. Can it be used in koi ponds and wildlife ponds?
Absolutely. It is ideal for koi ponds, garden ponds, and ornamental ponds. Just ensure the model size is appropriate for your pond volume and fish load.

10. Does the Power UV TL require a separate ballast or control box?
No. The UV ballast and wiring are built into the unit’s design, making it self-contained. Just connect to mains power using the included cable and plug.
