đđđđđđđ you are the man Phil boy! Your happier than my dad when I got in to the paras!!!!!!!! I must say Phil itâs a great bit off kit. Build quality is second to none! Hopefully get it plumed in tomorrow. Think I need a few mor fittings but can still get the bottom drain plumed in, will have to wait to get the skimmer going through!!!! đ
So glad you got the Oase. Looks quality as you know quality. First question you ask a realtor on your next move: Whatâs the tap water tds? đ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
I think you have made the right decision there. You wont be disappointed with Oase :-) Love the way your brain works, you havent finished something and your mind is already dreaming of something else :-) I am the same, that's what keeps me sane and on track :-) Great update Lee.
@@leehadfield6881 love the fact that the screen comes into parts, so if anything happens, you don't need to change the entire screen. Looking forward to when you have installed it.
Well that's a surprise, I could have sworn you would get a beige box. I've had the original premium compact for over 5 years. It sits outside open to all weathers, all I've had to do is change a screen now and again, a 2 minute job. It's a good idea to get a spare set for when one gets a split. Oase pumps are brilliant I had my first one pack up after 25 Years of continuous running, a rubber seal went. If I'd changed the seal when I should have it would still be running now. I've always fitted oase pumps to customer ponds because there's never any comeback and they do the job perfectly. Another good vid Lee, thanks.
Wow Lee mate I thought I had the drum locked lol I need to be friends with Keith too đ Tidy bit of kit and a good choice Good luck with piping! You should have it done by tomorrow afternoon đ€Ł The 5 year plan is epic and if anyone can achieve it Itâs you đ€đ€đ€đ€

Hi Lee. On those ball valves, find someone with a metal lathe and get them to machine out the pipe from the stub. Simples! Just need to take it dead careful so you donât take any material from the I/D of the stub. Use a piece of fresh pipe to gauge the amount to machine out!
I don't use pressure pipe at all had ponds for over 20 years never had a problem just make sure you insulate if there's a risk of freezing, love the channel keep them coming mate

Iâve got the little version - compact M gravity, only weighed in at 80kg đ youâve got yourself a good bit of kit thereâŠ. Bulletproof! I agree about pipe work, itâs a head fuck!!!

Hi Lee, I've just purchased the same filter too. Just a question, did you get the 4 inch outlets suppled with it, along with the fitted 6 inch outlets? I know Phil from TKP did. Many thanks, Adrian

Ooooo it would be tempting wouldnât it! And it would allow you to have more fish, which is never a bad thing! Plus youâll have the filtration to handle the extra volume. The only down side is how much cost and effort for the extra gallonage?
