Evolution Aqua Tempest Water Polisher v2 (2025)

The Tempest Polisher from Evolution Aqua is a high-performance mechanical and biological filter that enhances water clarity using the innovative K+Media. Its patented air syphon design makes installation simple and cleaning fast, making it an ideal addition to any filtration system.

During the cleaning cycle, air is drawn into the vessel as it drains. This creates agitation inside the chamber, effectively dislodging trapped debris from the K+Media and flushing it out via the waste outlet. The entire cleaning process takes just minutes and requires minimal intervention.

Key Features

• Improves water quality and clarity
• Includes advanced K+Media
• Traps particles down to one micron
• Patent-pending air backwash system
• Compatible with any filtration setup
• Provides additional mechanical and biological filtration
• Quick to install and easy to maintain

Upgraded for Ease of Use & Reliability

• 1.5″ Double Union Ball Valves: Reliable inlet and outlet control
• Reinforced Mounting Brackets: Durable 3mm thick brackets for quick installation and adjustment
• Enhanced Waste Valve Assembly: Improved air inlet with valve for better control and durability

Operating Modes

Filtration Mode: Water flows upward through the polisher, suspending the K+Media and forming a mechanical barrier. Debris is trapped until its dislodged during the cleaning cycle.

Cleaning Mode: To clean, simply close the inlet and outlet valves, switch off the pump, and open the waste and air inlet valves. The media is agitated and debris is expelled quickly and efficiently.

Advanced Filtration Media

Developed in the UK by Evolution Aqua, K+Media delivers superior filtration with a high surface area and faster maturation. During the manufacturing process, minerals and enzymes are embedded directly into the media, giving it a biological boost that accelerates filter maturity and improves overall performance.
