- Water is pumped from the pond into the Pressure Filter. It is then directed tangentially creating a mini vortex which settles out the suspended solids. At the same time the microscopic algae is exposed to the UV light causing the particles to die and clump together.
- The water is then forced up through the heavy duty Japanese filter matting which captures the suspended particles and the algae clumps, preventing their return to the pond.
- Almost solids free the water now passes through the bio-ball filter medium, where friendly nitrifying bacteria eliminate toxins and other harmful pollutants.
- Discs of coarse and fine profiled filtration foam complete the purifying cycle.
- The water is then returned directly to the pond via a hose or a waterfall.

All Green Genie Pressure filters incorporate the Lotus specially developed EasiCleanse backwash cleaning system, which means the filter does not need to be opened to be cleaned.
- Move the mode switch from 'Work' to 'Clean'.
- The water flow is now reversed through the filter media.
- The solids are expelled from the Pressure filter via the UV chamber and waste connection.
