Dirty water pump

Dirty water pump

A dirty water pump moves water with dirt particles without clogging them. You use these pumps as a circulation pump for the filter or if you want a waterfall in your pond. The distance and height to be moved determines the water output of the pump.

How does a dirty water pump work?

Dirty water pumps are submerged and transport water through a hose to the filter. The pump should be as deep in the water as possible and the outlet as far away from the pump as possible. This way you get the best water circulation, which is important for proper distribution of nutrients and CO2 to the aquatic plants. This allows the plants to grow optimally and prevents algae growth.

Purchasing a dirty water pump

Dirty water pumps work every day, year in and year out. That’s why it’s important to buy a pump with a long life. The easiest way is to choose a complete filter set. This gets you done in one go and also eliminates the need to find different parts together.

Connecting a pump is not difficult. When you buy a good pump it always comes with a clear and useful manual.
