We Carry the Right Pump for Every Application

                  Call Us - Take the Guess Work Out of What Pump To Buy !

 

Few things can be as confusing to a pond builder as choosing a pump. There are many different sizes and styles of pumps. We will try to help you understand the differences between pumps and how to select the best one for you. Many dealers and home improvement stores choose pumps based solely on price. They want to sell you a pump as cheap as possible – the problem is that while “cheap” pumps may work fine to pump out your boat or basement now and then, they will not last when used in a continuous duty operation like water gardening. Always choose a pump that is rated for continuous duty operation. While these pumps may cost a little more to purchase initially, they will last much longer and actually save you money in the long run.

HIGH VS. LOW EFFICIENCY PUMPS

We sells both high efficiency and low efficiency pumps. Both are rated for continuous duty operation but they are very different from each other. A high efficiency pump uses superior parts and will last longer and use less electric than a low efficiency pump. The electrical savings will pay the difference in price in a few short months!

HOW TO CHOOSE THE CORRECT SIZE PUMP
Next to each of our pumps in this catalog will be a chart showing how many GPM (gallons per minute) that pump will provide at 5' of head, 10' of head, etc.. To understand this you need to remember that water is heavy (8 lbs./gal.) and the higher a pump has to push the water the less volume it will provide. Important — the feet of head is the distance from the surface of the water level in the pond to the top of the waterfall. To create a nice “average” looking waterfall or stream, it takes 30 GPM for every 1' of width. To determine GPM needed multiply width of desired stream in feet x 30.
Example: We are building a waterfall that is 3' wide and 10' high above our pond. Multiply 3(width) x 30 = 90 GPM @ 10' of head. 

DON’T RESTRICT YOUR PUMP!
Often times pond owners use too small of a hose on their pump. Always use the same size hose, or even one size larger, as the discharge port on the pump.  Always match your pipe size to the amount of water being pumped regardless of the outlet size of the pump. Each fitting in your plumbing system creates resistance and can slow your flow. We recommend using our flexible PVC pipe which eliminates most fittings. The depth of the water where the pump is located does not count towards feet of head. Feet of head is the distance the water is lifted above the pond.

We carry a variety of both submersible and centrifugal water pumps, so we are certain you will find the right pump for your situation.!
