My pump is too small and want another one. Have a 4500 gal pond and waterfall. Recomendations from all the experts welcome. Presently have a tote box converted to a skimmer with filters and 1600 GPH pump inside with 1 1/8 PVC pipe to the falls. Do not want to but, Will change everything if needed. Any one got one??
wanted pond pump
This is my favorite on-line company for pumps. I have order a good many of their mini pumps for several tabletop fountains I have built. I also ordered a fair sized one for my front yard pond. They have good prices with no minimum order required.
Don't let the 'wholesale' wording scare you off....they sell to individuals as well as large companies.

Got your mail. Must be submersible and at least 4000 GPH Thanks
How high is your lift? You may need to consider more than one pump to achieve 4000gph if your lift is more than say 10 feet.
This one linked below has a lift capacity of 70 gpm (4200 hr)
but at a lift of 10 feet. GPH drops as the lift height incresses.

surface of pond to top of water fall is 3 foot. Pump is in skimmer box.
Great! Most of the high volume pumps appear to pump near your desired amount up to 10 feet, so you should be able to find one fairly easily.
