Description
The APS 800 Series Pond Log has been proven effective for clarification of pond-lake systems as well as reducing phosphate levels.
The APS 800 Series Pond Log is a highly effective solution for removing turbidity and inanimate nutrients from your water, clarifying pond-lake systems and reducing phosphate levels. By combining it with aerators/bubblers, floating fountains, or man-made waterfalls, you can create the necessary agitation to effectively utilize the APS 800 Series Pond Log.
Pond Logs treat between 325,000 to 500,000 gallons of water.

These systems are easy!
How It Works
As water moves over and around these logs, they gradually dissolve, releasing beneficial components into the water column. This process helps bind excess inanimate nutrients, such as phosphorus, together. As these particles aggregate, they become heavier and eventually settle at the bottom of the pond or are filtered out, promoting a cleaner and healthier aquatic environment.
It is crucial to understand that Pond Logs do not eliminate all inanimate nutrients but effectively reduce them to create a balanced and thriving ecosystem. Typically, our pond products achieve a 75-90% reduction in phosphorus levels.
All APS products are safe for fish; no need to monitor pH.

Installation
APS Pond products can be installed above an aerator, under a floating fountain, on the steps of a waterfall or with any circulation mechanism. The water must be moving over and around the Pond Products for them to work.
Aerator/Bubbler System
Secure the APS 800 Series Pond Log in the flow of the bubbles to ensure that the site-specific polymers are properly circulated through the system. This method ensures optimal clarification and nutrient reduction.
Floating Fountain System
Floating fountains are not only visually appealing but also functional when paired with the APS 800 Series Pond Log. The agitation provided by the fountain helps to maintain low nutrient levels and clarify the water, making it an excellent addition to any pond or water feature.
Waterfall System
Using the APS 800 Series Pond Log in conjunction with waterfall systems can result in crystal clear water, free from organic matter. The installation process is straightforward: Secure the Pond Log to the "steps" of the waterfall, and let the system do the rest. This creates an idyllic environment for your aquatic friends and enhances the overall beauty of your water feature.
