It operates seamlessly with pumps between 1000 and 6000 GPH and features durable plastic construction, making it a reliable choice for pond enthusiasts. The filter comes with 3 self-sealing unions for easy installation, ensuring you can enjoy your water feature without the hassle. ## Description The Model AD8000HE - Model 2.2BHE filtration system includes a 2" High Effeciency Control Head with 2" plumbing in and out. This is the same control head and column as used in the Model 16000. The only difference is that the column is just 4 inches shorter in length, while maintaining the flow effeciency of the 16000. This model was introduced to accomodate clients who wanted to use very energy effecient pumps and not having to sacrifice too much water flow. If you want to use a low head, effecient pump in this 8000 gallon pond class then this filter may be for you. If you feel that friction loss improvement is beneficial to you, you will not be dissapointed. The Model 8000 is an excellent choice for a bead filtration system for larger ponds. The Model AD8000 far exceeds the performance of most all competitive filtration units in it's class. Entering the 8000 class, the AD8000, and the AD8000HE both truly perform spectacularly for ponds in this size range. The 8000HE is a High Effeciency version of the AD8000. While very much like the 8000, the AD8000HE offers the added effeciency of a 2" multiport valve which is further machined to decrease friction loss. The additional effeciency offered by this model will allow an improvement in water flow by about 15% to 20% with low head, high effeciency pumps. As with the 8000 this model includes the Dynamax air assisted backwash which makes this model extremely efficient in all ranges of waste loading. This unit will efficiently filter 8000 gallons of water with up to 165 pounds of fish or other aquatic inhabitants. Even under the heaviest of waste loading, the Dynamax will break up a loaded media bed with ease. The larger media bed is very forgiving of neglect. You can backwash the Model 8000HE with as little as 50 gallons of water. In an 8000 gallon pond you will hardly even notice a water loss. ## Features - Will filter ponds up to 8000 Gallons - For use with 1000-6000 GPH pumps - 2 inch plumbing ports - 3 Self Sealing 2 inch Unions Included ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B006IDF2BU | | Best Sellers Rank | #1,775,425 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ( See Top 100 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ) #1,731 in Pond Filtration Equipment | | Brand | AQUADYNE | | Brand Name | AQUADYNE | | Color | Silver | | Customer Reviews | 5.0 out of 5 stars 3 Reviews | | Item Weight | 177 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Aquadyne | | Manufacturer Part Number | AD8000HE | | Material | Plastic | | Material Type | Plastic | | Model Number | 2.2BHE | | Product Style | Above Ground | | Specific Uses For Product | Pond Filtration | | Style | Above Ground | ## Product Details - **Brand:** LadPemo - **Material:** Plastic - **Item Weight:** 177 Pounds - **Manufacturer:** Aquadyne ## Images ![Model 2.2BHE (High Efficiency) Bead Filter - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/410kCQnrQQL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: What is the long, white tube shaped thing on the left side of the bead filter?** A: At first I didn't see the item you were asking about until I opened the pic in another web page. It appears to me to be a pic of the "head control unit" that's on top of and inside the tank. I'm not sure why they show it to the left of the tank pic - normally this is inserted in the top of the tank and you would only see the "head" unit. The pic seems to be showing the unit in the tank and outside of the tank in one pic. Probably a pic mix up. It really looks more like the little graphic of the tank. Hope this helps - the really are great performing tanks with minimum upkeep. **Q: Can i get/buy just the head control unit by itself?... mines got a big leak** A: yes but that would have to be special ordered // you will have to go through the website ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by A***D on July 11, 2012* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by R***D on May 31, 2014* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by H***. on December 16, 2013* ## Frequently Bought Together - Aquadyne Model 2.2BHE (High Efficiency) Bead Filter - API POND ALGAEFIX Algae Control 8-Ounce Bottle - Aquascape Dry Beneficial Bacteria for Pond and Water Features, 4.4-Ounce | 98925,White --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.fr/products/61600356-model-2-2bhe-high-efficiency-bead-filter](https://www.desertcart.fr/products/61600356-model-2-2bhe-high-efficiency-bead-filter) --- *Product available on Desertcart France* *Store origin: FR* *Last updated: 2026-05-18*
