Description
The OASE Filtral UVC 1600 (SKU 76006) is a complete all-in-one submersible pond filtration system combining a 410 GPH pump, mechanical and biological filtration with four media types, a 13-watt UV clarifier, integrated aeration, and decorative fountain nozzles — all in one compact unit that sits directly on the pond bottom. No external filter box, no separate pump, no additional plumbing required beyond connecting a power cord to a GFCI outlet.
Rated for decorative ponds up to 1,600 gallons, the Filtral UVC 1600 is ideal for preformed ponds, garden water features, and small formal ponds where simplicity and discreet installation matter. OASE’s integrated grounding plate and 13W EPA-registered UV clarifier provide exceptional safety and water clarity. Backed by a 2-year warranty and eligible for the OASE Clear Water Guarantee.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the maximum pond size for the OASE Filtral UVC 1600?
The OASE Filtral UVC 1600 (SKU 76006) is rated for:
- Decorative ponds (no fish): up to 1,600 gallons
- Light fish load (goldfish): up to 800 gallons
- Heavy fish load (koi): up to approximately 400 gallons
These ratings assume continuous 24-hour operation. For koi ponds or heavily stocked ponds, step up to a dedicated external pressure filter like the OASE BioPress series for more robust biological filtration capacity.
Is the pump and UVC clarifier included in this kit?
Yes. This is a complete all-in-one system. Everything needed for basic pond operation is included in one unit:
- 410 GPH pump for water circulation
- 13-watt EPA-registered UV clarifier for green water control
- Four types of filter media (2 filter foams, bio-media elements, filter pebbles) for mechanical and biological filtration
- 3 interchangeable fountain nozzles (Lava, Vulkan, Magma patterns)
- Aeration nozzle for oxygen enrichment
- Stepped hose adapter (0.5”/0.75”/1”) for optional secondary water feature connection
Only a GFCI-protected outdoor outlet is needed to complete the installation.
How does the integrated aeration nozzle benefit my pond?
The Filtral UVC 1600 includes a dedicated aeration nozzle (exclusive to the 800 and 1600 models in the Filtral family) that creates a rising column of fine water droplets, greatly increasing the surface area for gas exchange. This oxygen enrichment benefits:
- Beneficial nitrifying bacteria that perform biological filtration — they require oxygen to process ammonia and nitrite
- Fish health during summer months when warm water holds less dissolved oxygen
- Overall pond circulation by pulling water from lower pond layers
Can I run a fountain and waterfall simultaneously?
Yes. The built-in diverter valve (T-piece) splits the pump output between a fountain nozzle display and a secondary outlet using the included stepped hose adapter. Both outputs have independent flow controls. Important sizing considerations:
- Total pump output is 410 GPH — splitting flow between two outputs will reduce flow at each
- Maximum head is 6 ft — any secondary waterfall must discharge less than 6 ft above the pond water surface
This configuration is ideal for small decorative trickle waterfalls, spitters, or rock cascades rather than large-volume waterfalls.
How easy is it to maintain the Filtral UVC 1600?
Maintenance is straightforward by design:
- Easy-access clips open the filter housing tool-free, without dismantling the nozzle assembly
- Filter media (foams, bio-media, filter pebbles) can be rinsed in pond water and replaced individually
- Top-mounted UV inspection window confirms UV operation at a glance without opening the unit
- UV bulb replacement: replace the 13W UV lamp annually for optimal algae control effectiveness
- Winterize: remove the unit from the pond, rinse all media, and store frost-free with the UV lamp protected from freezing
