Maintenance

The primary purpose of the JellyFish® filter is to remove pollutants from stormwater runoff. As
with any filtration system, periodically these pollutants must be removed to restore the
JellyFish® filter to maximum treatment performance. Regular inspection and maintenance are
required to ensure proper functioning of the system.

Maintenance of the Jellyfish Filter is generally conducted annually. The maintenance
procedure can be summarised into two steps:

1. Vacuum sediments from the sump (as per standard GPTs)
2. Rinse down filter cartridges with only a low pressure hose before recommissioning
them back into the device

With proper maintenance, it is recommended that the filter cartridges be replaced with new
ones (unless cartridges are damaged beforehand) every 5 years. This ensures the Jellyfish Filter
is operating in an optimal environment, and ensures that maintenance and on-going costs are
kept low.
