A visit to the Draco pond Filter Factory. Seeing my new combi drum filter for the first time.

We travel to North Wales to visit Draco drum. We have a tour around the factory and a first chance to see the new C40 combi drum filter.
After, we take a quick tour of Tony’s fantastic pond setup.

That was a great video Dave…👍🏼 Very interesting to see the filters being made. That should be a great addition to your pond… 👏🏼 👏🏼 👍🏼 And what a pond Tony has…. 🤩

[@edenkoipond]

Thanks buddy. Hope you’ve had a good weekend 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@carlconium5459]

Great video Dave. That skimmer would be ideal and just what im looking for. Please make some available Tony 👍

[@edenkoipond]

It’s worth getting in touch with him 👍🏼 I’ll mention it too. Thanks for watching 👍🏼

@@edenkoipond thanks Dave. We always enjoy your uploads because you always have a good laugh about something or other.

Apart from your hotel room it looks like you had a nice trip. Can't wait to see the new drum filter installed, certainly an impressive piece of kit. Tony's pond was stunning. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@benzzkyKoi]

Looking forward to the install . Im just building my pond and was looking at the c30

[@edenkoipond]

I’ll get a video up next week so keep your eyes peeled 👍🏼👍🏼 Thanks for watching ☺️

That’s a tidy drum mate looks very smart and that’s a great pond looks very nice

[@KoiPondLifestyle]

Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to see the drum in action..😉👍

Thanks buddy 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

We've had a Draco drum solum 25 for nearly 5 years now it has the 50 micron screen and our water is crystal clear ! The jets have no problems cleaning the 50 micron with just tap water with sub average water pressure ! ! ! We'd actually like a 40 micron screen but we have no need to replace ours yet at the 5 year mark ! The only criticism would be the plastic teeth don't seem to grab floating debris like they're supposed to so it would be better to remove them completely to raise the waste tray higher to allow for the waterline to be higher ! Maybe Draco drum can take notes 😉😆

[@edenkoipond]

I’ll make sure he reads this 👍🏼 Good to hear a good review and that the filters still going strong. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Best wishes ☺️👍🏼

[@CBersPond]

Great video Dave 👍 I'll pop down at some point and see the drum in action. Travelodges 🙄 Hope you're well.

[@koikanalen]

That must be the most well thought out Drum filter i have ever seen! Thank you for sharing! Do you know if they ship to Denmark?

[@edenkoipond]

Cool isn’t it. Spoke with Tony from Draco to ask your question. He said he can ship to wherever providing the postage can be covered 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@Les-OZZYTHEOSCAR]

Cheers for sharing Dave, eww that Travelodge room..........nightmare !

[@asterixborden-koi6881]

Wow 😲 that Drum looks good Dave can’t wait to see you get it home and setup, I too grow Pitchers and Venus Flytraps

[@edenkoipond]

Thanks buddy. Hopefully it’ll work ok 👍🏼 Hope you are well ☺️

[@dancrawford2690]

I like that it has no corners inside, my drum collects loads of crap in the 90 degree corners

[@UnitedSpotlight]

i hvae to admit i much prefer these types of ponds that the out of ground fibreglassed ones Wrightys is very nice too , i get probly more maintaince with plants etc but they look so much nicer

[@edenkoipond]

Totally agree - if/when I build a new pond it will 100% have more of the traditional characteristics. So much more relaxing and nice to look at 👍🏼

[@steveg4315]

Liking the look of that drum Dave be good to know what it uses on a clean I can’t believe someone hasn’t made a floating weir for one of them skimmer’s the one I made for mine works so much better

[@edenkoipond]

Hiya buddy. At the moment with heavy feeding it is cleaning every 45 minutes. Each clean uses 1 litre of water 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@steveg4315]

@@edenkoipond has it got a separate wash pump using pond water or is it cleaning off the mains

[@Brand-Family-Koi-Adventures]

Well done bud can’t wait for the next one I’m still not sure if that one would be able to go in my filter house as I haven’t got much hight from the floor to the water level ile have to have a look into it great update Dave

Hi Dave, A nice video on your vist draco factory Tony House mate I can not wait for the instruction video mate. Steve

[@edenkoipond]

Are you on Facebook Stephen?

[@markscountrykoi]

You can’t beat it tour tour round Draco

[@edenkoipond]

We really enjoyed it. Tony and his wife always speak so highly of you buddy ☺️

[@fozdotfoz]

Just caught up with this video a week after release.. Like you said. You imagine Draco to be a bigger sized company but good things come in small sizes eh 😬. Oh and Queni Koi is pronounced "Qweni" not 'Qweeni'. I assume its from the local village of Queniborough.

[@edenkoipond]

Thanks for confirming that…. I always worry I’m pronouncing it wrong 😂 A great dealership, just wish it was closer than 4 hours 😂😂

[@markscountrykoi]

But Eden were was my visit then you came straight past mine 😅

[@edenkoipond]

Nooooo way? I thought you was down south west??

[@edenkoipond]

Disgusting aren’t they. I left it too late to book a different hotel 😟 Turns out it was being used to house refugees/homeless.
