The intake channel may have an open end at the bottom of the filter basin. The open end may be substantially parallel with the filter basin bottom and may dispense fluid into the filter basin. The fluid may flow from the intake channel and into the filter basin in a laminar manner. The fluid may fill the filter basin and flow from the filtering unit through an outlet port of the filtering unit.
