Buy pond pump at BluGarda

Do you need a new pond pump? Then it is wise to do your research before purchasing a new pond pump. The BluFlow pond pumps from BluGarda are robustly built to last long and have low energy consumption.

Why a pond pump in your pond?

The majority of pond pumps have one purpose: to move water in your pond. A good pump is incredibly important for proper water circulation in your pond. This ensures that the ecosystem (the biological processes) in your pond remains in motion. This way you maintain a healthy pond with good water quality. You can use the output of the pond pump for your filter, waterfall, stream, or fountain.

Which pump do I need for my pond?

There are different types of pumps that you can use in your pond to keep the water moving. The choice of pond pump type depends on your pond and your preferences. You can opt for a regular pond pump, an adjustable pump, or a pond pump with a filter. But when do you choose which pump?

Regular pond pump

One regular pond pump is a good choice to move water. These are set to a fixed power and efficiently and energy-savingly move a lot of water in your pond. You can use them as a pump to your pond filter, waterfall, stream, or fountain.

The regular BluFlow pond pumps from BluGarda are equipped with a handy extra hose fitting to connect, for example, a skimmer.

Adjustable pond pump

One adjustable pond pump is a perfect choice when you want to have a lot of control over the output of your pump. Thanks to a controller, you can regulate the output in steps. This has several advantages:

• The output to a pressure filter is precisely determined so that it has exactly the right pressure
• Determine the output to a waterfall or stream so that it flows beautifully
• The output to a fountain determine so that it looks perfect
• With precise capacity, do not consume too much power
• In winter, reduce capacity to save electricity

It can sometimes be difficult to choose the right capacity pond pump for your pond. The net capacity of a pond pump can decrease when the lift height increases, when long or thin pond hoses are used, and when there is contamination in the pump. As a result, you may end up with too low a capacity for your filter, fountain, or waterfall. Therefore, we always recommend choosing a pond pump with a higher gross capacity. With an adjustable pond pump, you can easily achieve sufficient capacity yourself.

The BluFlow Control adjustable pond pumps from BluGarda come with a convenient connection for dry installation and a controller that can be operated outside the pond.

Pond pump with filter

Do you want simplicity? Then a pond pump with filter The ideal choice. This is especially suitable for small to medium-sized ponds. With a pond pump with filter, you have an all-in-one system that keeps your pond in motion, filters, and cleans it. This way, you don't need complicated wiring, pond hoses, or systems. With one device and just one plug, you have everything you need to keep your pond healthy. The BluFilter all-in-one filters from BluGarda include a pond pump, filter material, UV-C device and fountain sets.

Where do you place a pond pump?

It is important to place your pond pump in a good position. The right position ensures good suction, good circulation, and easy accessibility for maintenance. You can choose to set up your pump dry or wet.

Is the pond pump a dry installation or a wet installation?

With a pond pump in a dry installation, you place the pump dry outside the pond. The water is pumped to the pump through a pond hose. The water can be drawn in by, for example, a skimmer. The advantage of installing a pond pump dry is that it is easier to access for maintenance and the suction basket does not get dirty. Always ensure that a pond pump in a dry installation is securely mounted.

In a wet setup, you place the pond pump directly in the water. The water is drawn in by the pump through a debris basket. The advantage of this is that you do not need a separate hose connection to your pump.

Both the regular and adjustable BluFlow pond pumps from BluGarda are suitable for wet and dry installation.

Place pump in wet installation in your pond

If you have placed the pump in the pond, make sure it is close to the bottom of your pond. The pond pump should never be completely on the bottom of your pond. The pump can then suck up sludge and easily become clogged. Place the pump on a small elevation, such as a few stones, so you ensure that the pump can continue to draw in water easily, but does not become clogged.

For good circulation, it is advisable to place the pump in a deeper area. Do you have a point where the water returns to the pond? Then place the pump on the opposite side. This way, you maintain good flow in your pond.

What does a pond pump cost in electricity per year?

A pond pump is the engine of your pond and essential for sufficient circulation. For this reason, a pond pump often runs day and night, 365 days a year. When purchasing a pump, it is very important to pay attention to the energy consumption of your pump. The electricity costs can add up significantly with a pond pump. Here, you compare the power (maximum capacity and maximum lift height) with the energy consumption (watts) of the different pumps. We have created a handy calculator to calculate the Calculate the energy consumption and the annual costs of your pond pump.

The pond pumps from BluGarda are designed according to the latest efficient techniques. This ensures that you are getting an energy-saving pump for your home.
