Aussie's observations
|
|
Suitable for: Pumping to external filters (pressure or gravity), able to be used as a stand alone fountain pump, great for
both fountain and a pond feature. |
|
What we liked: An ideal pump for external filters such as
the smaller
Blagdon Minipond Pondone Claritec and flow adjustment via an inline valve. It also has several fountain
nozzles included with the pump, if it fits thru the cage it can pass
thru the nozzle. |
|
Other comments: Pump cage is a new design, allows for easy access to pump, simply unlock side and pump can be easily accessed for
servicing. |
|
Other pumps for filters: Laguna - Max flo Aqua Garden Barracuda |

**Head
/ shut off - The higher the water is
pumped, the less the flow until the maximum pumping height is reached. It is
critical that this is understood, this height is where the water stops flowing.
