How to change the A244 aquarium filter media
Watch the guide or follow the steps.
- 1Unplug the filter and close the hose valves (the AquaStop valve on 06 and 07 series filters) before you disconnect it.
- 2Open the filter and lift the media baskets out of the canister.
- 3Rinse foam in water from the aquarium; rinse BIOMAX in aquarium water only: Fluval says never to rinse it with tap water.
- 4Fit a new polishing pad every 3 months, or sooner if it clogs and the flow drops.
- 5Put the baskets back in the same order, close the filter, then prime and restart it as its manual describes.

- How often should I replace the A244?

- How do I fit the A244?
- No tools, a few minutes: 5 steps, listed on this page with the replacement video where the maker has one.
- What happens if I don't change it?
- Spent carbon stops removing odours and discolouration, and clogged pads slow the flow, so the filter moves less water through the tank.
