FAQs

Can I use this pump in a swimming pool?

What is the maximum lift of this pump?

The pump has a maximum vertical head height of 2.7 metres.

Does this pump include a warranty?

Yes, it comes with a 2-year manufacturer warranty for peace of mind.

How do I handle the pump during winter?

You must remove the pump from the pond before freezing temperatures arrive to prevent frost damage, then clean and store it indoors.

Are there any health safety warnings?

The pump contains a magnetic field; keep a minimum distance of 0.2m if you have a pacemaker or implanted defibrillator.

Troubleshooting

Pump fails to start

Check the power supply and ensure the plug is fully seated in a GFCI-protected outlet.

Reduced water flow

Inspect the intake strainer for blockages and ensure the tubing connected to the outlet is not kinked or obstructed.

Pump turns off unexpectedly

The thermal overload protection may have triggered due to overheating; check that the pump is fully submerged and free of debris clogging the impeller.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Energy-efficient operation at 70 watts
  • Reliable solids handling up to 4mm
  • Compact form factor for easy installation
  • Includes thermal overload protection for safety
  • Backed by a 2-year manufacturer warranty

Cons

  • Not suitable for use in swimming ponds
  • Must be removed and stored during frost conditions
  • Requires magnetic field safety distance
  • Limited vertical lift of 2.7 metres

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For installation, ensure the pump is fully submerged within the pond water to prevent the motor from running dry. Since the pump contains a magnetic field, ensure it is kept at least 0.2 metres away from anyone with a pacemaker or implanted defibrillator. For maintenance, regularly check the pump intake for large debris buildup that exceeds the 4mm handling capacity. Because the unit is susceptible to damage from freezing water, you must uninstall the pump before the winter frost sets in, clean it thoroughly, and store it in a dry, frost-free location until the spring.
