Laguna PowerJet 600 Fountain/Waterfall Pump Kit for Ponds Up to 1200-Gallon

I purchased the Laguna PowerJet High Performance Fountain/Waterfall Pump Kits (2400 gallons per hour circulation.) This kit contain everything you need to generate powerful water circulation and beautiful water display features, including a powerful PowerJet water circulating pump, riser stem and two fountainheads. The pump does not require foam cartridges since it sits inside a cocoon-like cage that blocks out dirt and debris and protects the pump from clogging. However, if you have fish in the pond, as I do, you will still need to clean the pump from time to time. This is a great pump which does not use an enormous amount of electricity to run. This pump is easy to install and featuring Click-Fit Fast Couplings the pump is completely submersible and engineered to run continuously. Laguna PowerJet 2400 is for ponds up to 4800 US Gallons and includes an outlet adaptor with a diameter of ¾", 1", 1 ¼".

Wow, what great pumps and energy efficient. Best gph is the 2400 Laguna at 28.57gph per watt used - 84 watts for 2400gph. Note: On my 18 year old 2000 gallon KOI Pond, I replaced my third pump, 1800gph 145 watt pump and my 36W UV light filter pump using 45 watts which is set at 250gph to kill free floating parasites, bacteria, and algae with 2 LAGUNA 2000gph fountain/waterfall pumps since price was right.Now I use only 160 watts versus the 190 watts using before and my waterfalls are twice the amount. Also I now have added a BALL fountain off one pump and the rest goes into my 150 gallon Skippy's bio filter. This pump is set on a timer to run only 14 hours a day. The second pump I use the fountain head exit piped to my 36 watt UV Light filter at a controlled rate of 250gph and also rest goes into the 150 gallon Skippy's bio filter making twice the water over the two falls I have. Now, I have more water thru the bio filter and over the two waterfalls with just one pump at only 80 watts and at 160 watts 2.2 times amount of water flowing.Another great feature is I use the backwash cleaner head, PT609 with the PT637 garden hose connector for pond make up water from my well connected directly. All you have to do is take the knockout plugs off the side of cage to mount above parts. Now when I put make up water in pond it cleans the plastic cage holes fairly well weekly and I only so far had to brush cage openings once this summer. Beautiful waterfalls - love the sound at night and love the ball fountain head - bonus love the reduced cost to operate and the two separate control valves are included for fountain and waterfall are built right into the the main valve.

Update Feb 2025:Still working 24/7 without clogging through rain and SoCal wind storms, periodic power outages.Original:Pump is strong, quiet and does not clog like a high-power Tetra I also recently deployed (2 pressure filters). Both are pumps are subject to the same debris. A bit expensive for the output, only time will tell how long it lasts against past pumps.

Purchased this pump for a small 400 gallon pond. We wanted a water feature and also feed water to a small waterfalls. This pump works well for both. I added a filter box and also purchased the tubing to send to the top of the waterfalls. The waterfalls is about 5 foot high and extends about 12 feet from the pond. This pump has more than enough flow for both. Very happy with the initial performance

I used to think Laguna had to be quality. They are like THE NAME in pond pumps. This one was the second Laguna brand pump that's died in me inside of 90 days. The last one was a 500$ 4200GPM which the seller and azon gave me no assistance with. This one is much more affordable. It only pumps filtered water. Woke up this morning the pump is burned out. Won't turn on. There isn't anything blocking the impeller.I purchased this pump and a pump/filter kit at the same time telling myself to take a full measure and here I am less than 2 months in a head wave with no sufficient way to airate this portion of my pond. Thanks Laguna...

Recently purchased this (2000 gph) to replace a cheaper pump/filter all in one. The water flow is wonderful and I don't have a problem with it clogging yet. I wish the fountain arm was longer though. I like to sit the pump in the deepest part of my pond (1000 gallon give or take) which is about 2 1/2 feet deep maybe. With the pond full, the fountain cannot be seen, so I will be working on a mod for that. It provides water flow to an outside filter then to a water fall and the flow is perfect. It's quiet and somewhat light, so it does want to move a bit in the pond. I have not added any more fish (after an algae control killed them) but since I added this pump after emptying my pond, both the pump and filter have kept my water clear with no algae, which is more than I can say about the previous setup I had. Installation was quick and easy, didn't need to look at the instructions. I'd definitely recommend this pump before any other inexpensive ones, especially if your just a beginner.

I thought the pump was terrific while it worked, but it only lasted from late spring to fall of a single year. I am unfortunately having to replace it the following season. I wish the lifespan of pond pumps was a little longer, as I bought a house in which a small water feature was made the key feature of the yard, but they seem to have a limited life span. However, the pump worked very nicely and was very nice to look at while it was working. I do like the shape of this pump better than the lightweight, rectangular shape of the original pump that came with the house, as this style pump does not flip over while it is running and stays in place.
