Choose a pump for your water feature
Start with the flow needed at the outlet, then account for vertical lift, pipe length, fittings and any filter or nozzle. A pump's maximum GPH rating is measured at low or zero head; it is not the flow you will receive at the top of a waterfall.
Compare the manufacturer's flow curve at your operating head. Check the required pipe diameter, power supply and whether the model is submersible or designed for external installation. For an existing system, match the pump to the filter's permitted flow as well as the pond's circulation needs.

Common questions
How do I compare pond pump sizes?
Compare delivered flow at your system's head height, not just the model name or maximum GPH. Pipe friction, fittings, filters and fountain nozzles all affect the flow available at the outlet.
Does every water feature pump work the same way?
No. Some pumps handle pond debris, some supply fountain nozzles, and others are intended for external circulation or pond cleanouts. Check the selected model's application and installation instructions.
