They are popular thanks to their low maintenance needs and high energy efficiency. Made in Germany, these fish pond pumps are designed for pumping water from your pond to a pond filter, waterfall or stream. Suitable for small to large ponds, Swell Filter Pumps have flow rates from 1500lph - 17000lph. They can pass particles up to 8mm, come with a 10m cable and have a 40mm hose size. With an excellent reputation with our customers, these filter pumps keep fish and the pond healthy. Please note: This pump does not filter, it is designed to work with and power a filter. The pump does not come with a filter. Swell Filter Pump These solids-handling pumps use the entire pump cage to prevent large items (or fish) from being sucked in. Small particles such as sludge, grit and debris can pass through to be handled by the filter. They are easy to maintain and provide a more consistent flow of water to the filter, keeping the pond and fish healthy. Please note: The impeller in this pump is a consumable part. With this being the only moving part of your pond pump, it is exposed to a lot of friction which can cause it to wear down and break over time. This component isn't covered in any protection we offer and can be purchased as and when required. Questions and Answers Q: Can these pumps block? A: If enough particles larger than 4mm pass through the pump cage, they can cause a blockage. While this can break some pumps, the Swell Filter Pumps are equipped with a thermal cut-off switch that temporarily disables the pump to prevent lasting damage. Q: What size pump do I need for my pond? A: Selecting what size pond pump to run your filtration system is one of the most important things to consider when setting up your pond. Pump flow rates drop when you pump higher and further than the pond, so you need to consider these effects. You should aim to purchase a pump that meets the maximum flow rate of your filter at its height above pond level. An easy rule of thumb, to work out the flow rate you should be aiming for in your filter and filter pump is to work out the volume of your pond in litres then aim for an lph (litres per hour) flow rate that matches your pond size to turn over the water in your pond every 1-2 hours. These pumps are designed for tackling solids in your pond, like food, grit and waste, with ease. Each Swell Filter Pump features a powerful motor designed for long-term reliable usage. Each model comes with a 10m outdoor cable. Due to UK legislation, it comes without a plug and one must be fitted separately. While the pump has a small footprint, it is incredibly powerful, making it easy to fit into your water course. We have a vast range of pumps to choose from so you can find the right model for your pond. You’ll be able to maintain and clean the pump easily with simple instructions. Review: Brilliant Buy - Bought to replace a much more expensive pump which has stopped working although only 19 months old. It wa still under guarantee but the company (not desertcart ) wanted it returned to them at my expense before deciding on a course of action?? Decided to purchase a new pump instead. This Swell pump was delivered overnight is half the price, runs like a dream, is very easy to set up. If it lasts as long as the guarantee it will be money well spent! Very pleased at the moment.

Or can it be a basic one? Just wondering if there is a minimum power plug or special one required** A: Jack, In theory, you can use a standard 13 amp UK mains plug on this pump. This would require that the unit is going to be plugged into an indoor socket or an outdoor socket which is inside an approved weatherproof housing. In addition, the electrical supply has to include an RCD device, to provide safety in case of faults developing in the pump or wiring. If you don't have the relevant expertise (and the fact that you've asked this question suggests that you don't) you should really consult a qualified electrician before using the pump. Water and electricity are a lethal combination. **Q: I have a 300 gal Pond with koi and large gold fish. What size pump do i nerd to feed the filter** A: Although this is a good pump I don’t think it would be suitable for Koi **Q: Will this give me a nice gentle flow over my rock feature? I have a 19mm pipe 45cm height.** A: It's very likely that you will ned to fit a valve in your pipe to control the flow rate. I use a similar size pipe and am feeding a small header pond approx. 1 mtr above the pump. I have to keep the flow throttled right back. As a general rule, if you are feeding a feature which has a narrow channel for the water to flow down, you need to keep the flow rate low. If you have a wider channel, it will handle a higher flow rate. You can get plastic valves from aquatic centres. I tried one initially but it was difficult to get a fine control of the flow. Currently I use a 22mm brass gate valve, which became redundant from its original job when I had a new boiler fitted about 12 years ago. **Q: Hi, i have a 50litre pond with gold fish, which pump would you recommend please?** A: As your pond is only 50lts this Swell 1400 is ample to filter your pond and cheap to run. You may even consider getting a smaller pump.
