## Overview

The Swell UK Pond Vacuum Cleaner is a high-efficiency, corded electric device featuring a robust 1400W motor atop a 25-litre collection tank. Designed for garden fish ponds, it removes sludge, algae, and debris using three interchangeable nozzles (thin, wide, standard). Its 4m hose reaches depths up to 2.5m, making pond maintenance effortless. Wastewater is conveniently disposed of into your garden, promoting eco-friendly recycling. Lightweight and easy to operate, it’s a must-have for maintaining crystal-clear, healthy ponds with minimal effort.

## Description

Product Description The Swell Pond Vacuum Cleaner is our best-selling fish pond vacuum cleaner. By regularly vacuuming your pond to remove debris such as sludge, algae, and decaying plant material, you'll have a noticeably clearer pond and healthier water, and you'll usually need to spend less time maintaining your filter. Swell Compact Sludge Vac This pond vac looks like a regular vacuum cleaner and features a powerful 1400 Watt motor which sits on top of a 25-litre collection tank. Simply use one of the three different suction nozzles provided to suck the debris out of your pond until the collection tank is full. Then dispose of the wastewater in your garden, and top up the pond with dechlorinated tap water. Questions and Answers Q: Does the Sludge Vac Filter Debris? A: The vac simply sucks debris into the tank. Pond vacuums are designed to handle soft debris, such as sludge, algae, and decomposing leaves. Just like a regular indoor vacuum cleaner, larger items such as twigs or stones could block the hose so try to avoid sucking these up where possible. Once the tank is full it empties, via the waste outlet, into a flowerbed or drain. Q: What is the maximum depth the vac can work in? A: The pond vac comes with a 4m hose, however, it is recommended that the unit be kept 1.5m away from the water’s edge during operation so it can reach a maximum depth of 2.5m. This should be enough to reach the bottom of most domestic ponds. The generous pipework offers plenty of length to reach your entire pond. Simply plug in and follow the instructions to easily remove sludge and debris. The full pond vacuum kit includes all the attachments needed for easy cleaning. Once the collection tank is full, it can be emptied into a flowerbed or drain. The unit can be switched to a dry mode to clear debris around the pond the edge. The thin, wide and standard nozzles give you an attachment for every use.

Review: SOLVED A PROBLEM - We have two ponds! Well, one Blagdon Half Moon Pool, and the other a small pre-formed "wild Life" pond. The pool is overstocked with fish but is beautifully clear, and the water quality mostly good. The pond has only eight gold fish but is muddy and very cloudy, caused by using the wrong type of pond soil when planting out pots of pond plants, but the water quality checks out as good. I had been thinking of clearing out the pond back to basics, at some risk to the fish, dreading having to do the same with the pool, since we would most certainly loose some fish. My wife stumbled across the Swell Compact Sludge Vac | Pond Vacuum Cleaner when she was trawling through desertcart the other day. Well, we've had stuff from Swell, which turns out to be Pontec manufacture, several times now, and it's all been good quality and reasonably effective. This pond vac is no exception! It is excellent! Problem solved at a couple of passes of the nozzle, so to speak. Everything you need, apart from a container for the dirty water/sludge is provided. We didn't want to take too much water out of either the pond or the pool, since we do a partial water change with the pool every week. The Compact sludge vac helped us by changing the water AND clearing sludge at the same time. The machine works in what at first seems a rather strange way in that it has a twenty second on/off cycle - THANK GOODNESS! It sucks for twenty seconds, and then pauses for twenty seconds, as it empties the container of sludge and dirty water, which gives us lesser beings time to fill one, not two, but three two gallon buckets with the outpouring sludge/dirty water. We found that two cycles in both the pond and the pool emptied out enough water for our weekly water change, and with the second pause we had time to switch the vac off. In our garden we do need two of us for this process, but since we work together anyway this was no problem (Boss had the job of taking the sludgy water up the garden to water her plants, whilst I looked after the vac and refilling the pond and pool - by gravity from our nearby water butt - a very good arrangement!!!). Just a brief update to help preserve marital harmony - well it works for me! We have replaced the emptying buckets with a large plastic dust bin for receiving the waist water - much less hassle! But there is more. Carrying buckets and water cans full of sludgy water up our garden (which is up hill anyway) has been replaced by an: desertcart Brand - Umi 400W Submersible Pump for Clean Dirty Water 8000 LPH, Drain Water from Garden Pond Pool Hot Tub Flooded Cellar, with Float Switch costing £50.00 What a difference! We connected a half inch garden hose to the outlet of the pump, and this hose takes the dirty water right up to the top of our garden with just enough output not to flatten the plants, but to give them a lovely drink of fishy sludge water - they appear to love it! No more staggering up the garden with two gallon buckets of sludgy water - marvelous!!! Just a tip. If like me you don't use a non return valve on the hose you will find that you may have to prime the dirty water pump by laying it on it's side in the next full dustbin to let the air out - works OK after that! Well, what more can I say? If you have a similar problem with your pool/pond, and who hasn't, you could do a lot worse than looking at this Swell Compact Sludge Vac | Pond Vacuum Cleaner | Efficient Pond Cleaning | Three Nozzles. Well worth the eighty nine odd pound investment. Well done Pontec and Swell!
Review: A well designed and well executed pond vac - This pond vac works well straight out of the box. There is a reasonable length of electrical cable and suction hose but the outflow hose is rather short. It sucks for about 25 seconds until the reservoir is full and then automatically empties the reservoir through the outflow hose before sucking again. If you make sure to turn it off at the end of an emptying cycle it can be quickly cleaned with a hose befor storing it away for next time. This makes the whole procedure very easy and I will therefore use it several times a year rather than completely emptying the pond every five years or so, which I hate doing. I wish that I had thought to buy one of these years ago!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Difficult to set up
*by J***N on 9 June 2024*

Worked well as a hover for the work shop but not for cleaning out the pond. Read all the reviews and some one had cut the filter so the ring could go under the lid. This works well as the vacuum is maintained. The pond is extremely clean. Had to attach a 43 m adapter to fix a 2 inch hose to reach the drain. Works extremely well. I like the start stop system as it gives me time to stop cleaning and allow it to vent out as it’s quick and powerful Tried to ask chat bot for another filter so I can use it as a hover but it doesn’t seem to understand me
