I rigged up a DIY diffuser, using the wife's old dish. It makes a huge
difference in how much junk gets cleaned off the bottom of your pond!

BV,

The diffuser makes the water pull along the bottom, rather than coming
straight down to the bottom drain. With a diffuser the area of the pond
cleaned is much larger. I don't use a diffuser and feel that my bottom
drain does an excellent job, but it supposedly would be even better with
diffuser.

I have a BD installed but I did not install the diffuser yet, so I have
just
a raw pipe sticking up. I do not see any evidence of a vortex being
created
in the water. Is it possible that the combination of 4'' pipe and size
of
my
pipe negates my need for a diffuser?
