Well fixed Si on the plus side the drum didn't go off while you was filming 🤔😜🤣🤣
Haha, for once😒🤣👍
Nice update 👍 and job well done 👏 ⛩🐟⛩
Thanks Cesca🙂 Hope you are keeping well!😃
Good job Si, well done…. 👏🏼 👏🏼 👍🏼
Thanks Andy!😃👍
Feel for you mate. I build koi systems and drums are trouble. I never wanted you to put this on your pond
Unfortunately for myself, I'm away from home quite a bit and something that can take a little load off was a must. A drum system fitted the bill for my own circumstances 🙂
You're bang on, it's all about what suits you best to enjoy the hobby . I've got 35 years in the game. My Builds are bottom drain to sieve,Mid water to moving bed via UV,skimmer to Bakki via heater,water quality is very good with Saturday morning maintenance,and 10 x60g feeds daily. Producing very big fish. Most of my customers have Tosai to 55cm within 12 months. Keep your chin up mate,it's a hard nut to crack
Nice easy fix mate well done 👍jobs a googun
Cheers Andy🙂 its nice when things go your way once in a while😅👍
@@UpNorthKoiPond I wouldn't know mate everything is just going wrong for me at the moment 🤬the joys of koi keeping 🤣
Good fix my man! Always good to fix and save some pennies for other stuff. See you in a few weeks 👍🏼👍🏼
O'yeahhh!😎👍
Great to see you managed to fault find the issue and resolve it. I have the filtreau HF30 and so far have only needed to replaced the silicone seal. Great result for you and very good to know that faulty fuse is in the control box! I didn't know it was there.
Thanks. How did you know that the silicone seal needed replacing?
@@UpNorthKoiPond The seal fractured and split from the amalgam UV lamp penetrating the seal. I now have a brand new seal in place and covered the seal with a rubber strip (same size) to protect it.
@@HayzeeHayes ah OK, so it wasn't anything to do with dirty water tracking into the clean side, That's good to know. Mine seems good at the moment 👍
@@UpNorthKoiPond That did happen but only because the seal failed/broke, I knew there was a problem as the clean side was getting dirty. New seal solved it though. Really is good to know mate about that 50ma fuse I didn't know it was there. You'll save someone a headache now. 👍
Hi Simon. Great video as usual. I have the Filtreau Combi Next which has the same control unit. As a in case of need, I am going to order those fuses. Can I ask, Re they 20mm or 30mm ?
Hi Andrew, they are 20mm👍
£12 well spent sir👍, so glad you sorted it and it was such a cheap fix😊👍
Thanks Phil, indeed it was a relief I only had to spend £12. Could have been a whole lot worse😃
Some times the motor stick see if if you could turn the drum
Always the small things cause the biggest problems
Well worked out fella and really informative video 👍
Thanks👍🙂
Glad u sorted it Si , always a worry when the expensive stuff stops working 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Cheers Davey. Trouble is it always happens when you could do without it😅 luckily this time the fix was a cheap one👍
Well done pal 👍 Good video I'm sure it will help someone else because they know you've got some fuses 😂 🐟
Maybe😅👍
Nice one❤Si.. Awesome way to troubleshoot that control panel…
Thanks!😃👍
Well worked out sir,, cheers Terry
Thank you Terry👍😎
Glad you got it sorted Si, nice cheap fix too 👍🏼👌🏼
Cheers Pete 👌👍
Well done buddy you worked it out saves a control board expense you wouldn’t want 👍🏼👍🏼
Too right. Cheers Mike 👍
Any chance you can give us a link as to where you got the fuses from as I'm having the exact same issue as you did and I cannot find the fuses online.....
Regards..rob
Unfortunately youtube doesn't allow me to post links, but if you find me on Facebook or get my email off my youtube page I'll send you the link
I see you have the fast flo screen fitted, is it much better than the standard one that comes with it
In hindsight, I probably didn't need to fit it as I'm only pulling from the one outlet that the drum has, and I can only pull a certain amount through the bio chamber. However if I was to ever tap in another outlet on the clean side of the drum, the high flow screen will be super handy.👍
glad you got it sorted si
Thanks Shane👍
Where did you get fuses from lol any part numbers
Online shop. Just type in T50mA fuse👍
Real pleased for you that it was a cheap fix
Thanks, me too👍😃
Nice work Simon. Any more thoughts on F.D Thank you
Thanks Shaun, All good to date. The fish love it anyway. Will take a little time to see results, probably a full season so we'll see👍
Thank you Simon.
@shaunleonard8146 no problem 👍
chuck a 6 inch nail in it mate,They dont blow..😁😁
🤣🤣 if only!
Some times the motors stick try and turn the drum by hand
No need 👍
@@UpNorthKoiPond yea I wrote that before I watch the end of the video 👍
