Aquadyne Model 2.2-B Excellently suited for ponds up to 7500 gallons

Again, as with the Model 1.1, The Model 2.2 is an excellent choice for a bead filtration system within a given price range for larger ponds. The Model 2.2-B by far exceeds the performance of the standard 2.2 at a slightly higher initial cost at the benefit of turbo-charging the efficiency of your filter. Carefully compare both filters performance data. Here again, we now fit the Standard 2.2 also with the necessary bulkheads for a later simple backyard conversion to the Model 2.2-B. The standard 2.2 can also be converted to a 2.2-B yourself with no special tools. If you are relatively sure that you will likely convert your filter to a Dynamax system at a later date, we advise that you not wait and purchase the appropriate model initially. By the time you decide to convert, you could have had it running from day one with no concern of conversion.

This filter can also be powered by a submersible pump like the model 1.1-B with little difficulty. This is a milestone for a filter that requires very little maintenance.

Model 2.2BH Package Option- Includes a 2" High effeciency Control Head with 2" plumbing in and out. (Same head and column as used in the Model 4.4, just 4 inches shorter in length.) If you must have 2 inches in and out of your control head this is the way to get it. However, considering the fact that the maximum recommended filtration rate is 4000 gph, you will only accomplish a friction loss improvement of about 15 to 20% by using the 2" control head and column. If you feel that this friction loss improvement is beneficial to you, buy it. If you are using your 2.2B filter in a typical installation and not trying to tweak every last gph out of your pump, save your money and buy the standard 2.2B model. Bearing in mind that the standard 2.2 and 2.2B control head and column will pass 3000 gph at less than 1 psi at the filter discharge port height, which is most exceptional by anyones standards.
