since this question is in "ponds" category, i assume you're talking about pond filtration:

my pond filter does three separate functions. . .

as the unfiltered water enters the filter, foam media catches debris from the water, then the filtered water passes through to a chamber that contains plastic balls. these hold billions of bacteria that filter out the nitrates and nitrites, and finally the water passes through a chamber holding a uv light, which kills off bacteria and algae. the water that

circulates back into the pond is now clean.

hope this helps!

How do well water iron filters work?

Well water iron filters work by passing water through a medium that collects iron particles, typically using oxidation or filtration methods. Oxidation processes convert iron into a form that can be trapped by the filter, while filtration physically removes iron particles from the water. The filtered water is then released for use, providing clean and iron-free water for household consumption.


The water in your house doesn't work but all your outside faucets work even those connected to the outside of the house How is this possible?

The easiest answer I can come up with is that you have a filter that is completely clogged up. Usually with filtration, the outside faucets are before the filtration so you don't put filtered water on your plants and grass etc.
