Dependable and easy to service,
the Challenger is Fluidart's®
best-selling filter.
This efficient bead filter is produced in five sizes to fit
ponds up to 20,000 gallons. Advantages include its tough
fiberglass tank, side-mounted multiport valve, and ease of
installation and maintenance. No need to disconnect
plumbing to access and service internal components. The
unique Hydra-Swirl design allows solids to be spun to the center
of the vessel where they stay until the sludge drain is opened.
Through the multiport valve, the pump delivers a thorough
backwash and rinse. With the drain open and the pump
running, solids are purged under pressure, fully removing waste
in a few seconds.

For backwash the Challenger
series
filters utilize Hydra-Thrust bead agitation, using forced
air to agitate the beads and free up trapped debris.
