Preparation for the third season

So far this pump has performed quite well as it is now in its third year. We have it like an impromptu waterfall that leads to a small pond. It's not too loud and seems well designed. It would also be good for water fountains and bird baths.

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • The list will be long.

Good for short fountains

I have a short (1 foot) fountain and the pumps seem to burn out every few years. This is a good replacement. Its power is not enough to pump a high fountain. I'm not sure why it says it has a special clog resistant housing as it's the same as other pumps I've used. I keep them from clogging by sticking the pump in an old nylon, nylon sock, or one of those horrible nylon things available when trying on shoes. Removing and flushing is much easier than cleaning the pump.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Write later

Great way to add running water to your yard or garden

I didn't want to look at this right away because it took me a while to get the bird bath, install it and then set the water system on. So far this pump has done a great job of adding running water to my bird bath. I put it in the middle of three oak trees in the backyard where there is plenty of shade. I have 8 or 9 bird feeders and a few birdhouses and I love watching the birds go from the feeder to the bathroom and back. I could build a static water fountain, but having a fountain in the tub…

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly

NOTE. This rating is for the 75-150 pump. I ordered this pump to replace my small balcony fountain. The pump I replaced was a PT-560 rated for a maximum capacity of 170 GPH. This 75-150 pump comes with two 3/8" and 1/2" hose inlet adapters. The pump also has a flow control valve. According to the specs, it's 120V, 60Hz, 13W with a maximum flow of 158 gph. It has a maximum pump height of 5ft 4in with a maximum cord of 6ft. Unfortunately the inlet adapters don't work with my hose. Instead, I had…

Pros
  • Happy so far
Cons
  • Alright

Works great in filtering water in ponds.

For a number of years I have been tending garden ponds to attract frogs and salamanders and provide them with a spawning ground. I stacked two of these on top of each other to provide overflow in heavy rain. One for 100 gallons, the other for just over 125 gallons. I have purchased several of these pumps over the years, not to create a large jet of water like many do, but simply to filter ponds. I've found that these types of pumps (and there are other manufacturers) usually last a few years…

Pros
  • Ideal for a small home
Cons
  • Weight
