Why choose the Minipond pump?

A popular choice for pond keepers, the Blagdon Minipond Pond Pump is a small yet efficient garden fountain pump. It can power fountains, waterfalls and filters, all while cutting down on energy consumption and overall costs. Minipond Pond Pumps are also equipped with strainer cages that acts like a pre-filter, keeping out sludge and larger particles of debris. This extends the lifespan of the pump's delicate internal components, like the impeller.

What size Minipond pump do I need?

The Minipond 700 is the perfect choice for extra small ponds. It can be used to run water features and fountains one at a time, and it includes a hosetail adapter that allows you to connect it to a pond filter or other pond equipment.

The Minipond 2000, on the other hand, is suitable for small to medium-sized ponds. It comes with a T-piece connect that allows you to run a secondary water feature or pond filter, as well as the pond fountain. It's worth noting, however, that splitting the flow across two pieces of equipment will reduce the fountain height.

Does this Minipond pump need routine maintenance?

These are fountain pumps that require minimum cleaning, only periodic cleaning of the pre-filter and impeller is necessary. The use of a descaler product will give improved performance and pump life by removing built-up limescale and waste. Routine maintenance should be carried out when pump flow is visibly reduced. Switch off electricity and remove the pump from the pond. Do not use the cable to lift the pump. Wash the cage, pre-filter foam (if fitted) and pump parts thoroughly in freshwater.
