Submersible Pumps

Choosing the right water pump for your pond can make all of the difference in the world. Just because a pump may cost less to buy, it is not always the way to go.

The most important thing to remember is the electrical usage when looking for a water pump for your pond. In order to maintain a healthy environment for your fish pond or water garden, you MUST run your water pump through your filter 24 hours a day, 7 days a week in season.

So it is important to pick the right water pump for your fish pond or water garden. Water pumps have variances in electrical usage and electrical costs.

The following formula will assist you in determining how much you will spend (approximately) per month to run the pump you select.

Formula:

  • Amps x Volts = Watts
  • Watts x 744 and divide by 1000 = KWH per month
  • KWH per month x Cost per KWH (located on your electric bill) = Cost per month

Check out our Pump Cost Calculator and our NEW TDH Calculator

We carry a complete line of external pumps including Performance Pro Pumps, Sequence Pumps, Sequel Pumps (coming soon), and Sunami by Aqua Ultraviolet.
