If you live in area with drastic temperature changes, be sure to build your pond deep. Deeper ponds will have more stable water temperatures. The temperature in shallow ponds can fluctuate radically in spring. These fluctuations can make it difficult for beneficial bacteria to colonize.
Make water alive with the Matala Semi Vortex Sewage Pumps. The pumps include a Semi-vortex urethane rubber impeller which suspends solids and allows for pumping of sand and stringy material.
Matala Semi Vortex Sewage Pumps are highly efficient, featuring a continuous-duty air-filled copper-wound motor with class F, and insulation all of which minimizes the cost of operation.
Features & Benefits:
Built in thermal protection prevents motor failure due to overloading, accidental run-dry and single phasing or three phase units.
Double inside mechanical seals running in an oil-filled chamber provide for one of the most durable seal designs available.
Double shielded, permanently lubricated, high temperature C3 ball bearings rated for a B-10 life or 60,000 hours provide for extended operational life.
An agitator impeller installed on the extension of the pump shaft. This not only prevents "air locking" but also reduces clogging when solid objects are sucked in.
Applications:
Residential, commercial, industrial dewatering and site drainage
