What We Guarantee:

Clear Water Guarantee Measurement Illustration

OASE has engineered specific filter systems to provide the OASE Clear Water Guarantee (CWG). Using a CWG filter system we guarantee you will be able to read the 1" marking on a tape measure when the tip is submerged to a depth of 3 feet.

  • THE CLEAR WATER SYSTEM is comprised of 3 elements - filter, UVC, and pump.
  • THE RIGHT COMBINATION of products based on the size of your pond and fish load will result in crystal clear water.
  • ANY SIZE POND can have a Clear Water System. New construction or retrofitted to an existing pond.
  • REMOVE THE GUESSWORK by following the 4 easy steps of the Clear Water Guarantee.

 

4 Steps to a Clear Water Guarantee

1. Determine your pond volume:

For circular ponds: Pond volume (gallons) = diameter (ft.) x diameter (ft.) x depth (ft.) x 5.9
For rectangular ponds: Pond volume (gallons) = length (ft.) x width (ft.) x depth (ft.) x 7.5

2. Determine your fish load:

The more fish in the pond, the higher the nutrient load and the larger the filter system should be.

  • LIGHT - Planted ponds with few or no fish
  • MEDIUM - Planted ponds with 10 in. of fish per 100 gallons of water or less
  • HEAVY - Planted ponds with koi or 20+ in. of fish per 100 gallons of water

3. Choose the correct filter system:

Use the filter system chart to determine the appropriate filter system for your pond.
