How to Choose Your Ideal Minipond Pump
Simply calculate the volume of your pond, and then select the features you require and a pump that exceeds your pond volume.
To calculate the pond volume:
length (m) x width (m) x depth (m) x 1000 = volume of pond in litres.
length (ft) x width (ft) x depth (ft) x 6.25 = volume in pond in gallons.
Waterfalls
Please note that if you require a stronger waterfall flow, choose a pump capable of running a wider flow than you need. The performance stated on the charts assumes the waterfall is a maximum of 1 m (3 feet 3 inches) above the surface of your pond.
Fountains, filter and waterfall combinations
When sizing a pump to run a filter system, it is essential to know the volume of water. This is so the pump can supply the correct amount of water to the filter system that your pond requires.
Sizing Information in Detail
- Waterfalls need 1365 L/hour for every 15 cm width to produce a medium flow.
- Fountain/feature ornaments require 30 per cent of the pumps flow as a guide.
- Pipework losses – 25 per cent of the pumps performance can be lost due to the resistance and friction of the hose and fittings and UVC clarifiers.
- Pump/lift head – The higher you pump water above the surface the bigger, more powerful pump you need. Work out the highest point which you require to pump the water to in your system. This is called the maximum head or lift.
- Filter – Most modern filter systems require a minimum if half the pond’s volume to be pumped through them every hour.
Important Information
In the UK it is illegal for a manufacturer to supply an indoor use three-pin plug with an outdoor product. This is because it is believed that supplying an indoor plug for an outdoor product would encourage consumers to use an unsafe indoor plug for an outdoor product. Please see Blagdon Powersafe Switch Boxes or Outdoor Connectors for safe and easy to use outdoor power solutions. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Blagdon Minipond 2000 is a centrifugal pump with a magnetic impeller movement driven by a watertight synchronous motor. They require minimum cleaning; only periodic cleaning of the pre-filter and impeller is necessary.
