Aussie's observations
|
|
Suitable for: Water features,
also for pond
circulation, waterfalls, fountains streams, some filters (but check with us
first) |
What was liked:
The 3 year warranty on the pump.
The quality and features are excellent for the price point,
very good value for money. Simular design to a top European
design. Up to 8mm solids handling.
Best of all the reliability for the price has been excellent.

**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.
****Based on running a pump
24/7 continuously for one year. The formula we use is $1.20 per watt per year.
(Some states will be slightly less, while some will be up to 30% higher)
##Pondmate supply a range of hose connections (tails) with each pump, however,
we have found that in many cases they are not the correct size for hose
available in Australia. If you want a specific hose tail to be supplied with
your pump please tell us and we will provide it.. |
