Oase Filtoclear: How to attach the lid / Filter Head:

Writer: Josh HarveyJosh Harvey

I have seen quite a few people on forums struggling with this so I’ve decided to create this article to help anyone else in this situation.



The correct technique to install the lid/filter head on the Filtoclear series is as follows:

  • Firstly, wet the seal with water ( from pond or tap ( if in hard water area, use rainwater/RO ).

  • Then, lay the seal at the very top of the main canister, NOT the lid. You should aim to place the seal as high up as possible, without it rolling off.

  • Gently place the lid on-top of the canister. Once in position, push down gently until the lid is properly seated.

  • Place the included band clamp into position around the outside of the filter. You will need to get one part of the clamp in place ( usually easiest if you start next to the hinge ).

  • You should then easily be able to seat the band clamp in place, pushing down as you go.


I hope this article has been helpful.
