Bombas de Estanque Aquascape

Las bombas de estanque Aquascape mueven el agua que mantiene un elemento limpio y audible. Este grupo reúne las familias AquaSurge, AquaJet, AquaForce, EcoWave y EXT, las bombas de manejo de sólidos PL y PN construidas para cajas skimmer, bombas dedicadas para fuentes, bombas de limpieza con manguera de descarga, y los kits de aireación y compresores que añaden oxígeno sin flujo superficial. Aquí también están los accesorios de bomba y las herramientas de limpieza.

Dimensione una bomba según el caudal que necesita a la altura a la que va a levantar el agua, no según el caudal nominal a altura cero. Aquascape publica la curva de caudal, la altura máxima de levantamiento, el largo del cable y el tamaño de descarga por modelo, así que tome esas cifras de su documentación, o llámenos con el número de parte y le ayudamos a hacer coincidir una bomba con su cascada o filtro existente. Los modelos de manejo de sólidos son los que se usan cuando la bomba va dentro de un skimmer y pasa residuos en lugar de quedar detrás de una malla.

Lo que la mayoría de los clientes de este grupo está resolviendo.

Running a waterfall

The AquaSurge, AquaJet and EXT families, chosen against the lift from the water line to the top of the falls.

Sitting in a skimmer

Solids handling pumps built to pass debris rather than sit behind a screen, which is what a skimmer box needs.

Fountains and basins

Dedicated fountain pumps sized for a basin feature rather than for a pond and a waterfall run.

Adding oxygen

Aeration kits and compressors that raise dissolved oxygen without adding surface flow, plus cleanout pumps for a drain down.

Cómo elegir, qué revisar antes de ordenar y cómo se envían los pedidos de Aquascape.

A pond pump is the one component that runs constantly, so it decides both how the feature sounds and what it costs to own. Size it by the flow you need at the height you are lifting, not by the rated flow at zero head.

How do I size a pond pump?

Two numbers decide it. The first is head, the vertical lift from the water line to the point where water re-enters the feature, plus the friction of the pipe run. The second is the flow you want at that height. What you want is the flow curve, the chart showing what a pump actually delivers as the lift increases, together with its maximum lift. Aquascape publishes both per model. A pump rated generously at zero head can be well short at the top of a tall waterfall, so read the curve at your height rather than the headline number, and call us if you cannot find it.

Solids handling or screened?

A solids handling pump is built to pass debris straight through rather than trap it on a screen. That is what you want in a skimmer box, where leaves and silt arrive at the pump by design. The AquaForce family and the PL and PN series are the solids handling models in this group. A screened or conventional pump is fine sitting in a clean basin or behind filtration, and is the usual choice on a fountain. Putting a screened pump in a skimmer is the common mistake, and it shows up as a pump that keeps losing flow.

Matching a pump to an existing system

When you are replacing rather than building, three things have to line up: the discharge size so the pump meets the pipe already in the ground, the flow so the filter is not pushed past its maximum rating, and the cord length so the pump reaches the outlet without an extension sitting in a wet skimmer. None of the three are printed on our pages today, so take them from the Aquascape documentation for the model or call us with the part number. If the old pump is still there, read its model off the housing and check the maximum flow on your filter before ordering a bigger one.

Aeration is not the same as circulation

A pump moves water. An aerator pushes air through a diffuser at the bottom of the pond and raises dissolved oxygen without adding surface current. They solve different problems. If fish are gasping at the surface on a hot night, or the pond is deep and the bottom goes still, aeration is the answer and a bigger pump is not. Aeration also keeps a gas exchange hole open in winter on some ponds. The aeration kits, compressors and diffusers in this group are sized by pond volume and depth.

Preguntas Frecuentes

Work out the lift from the water line to where the water re-enters, add the pipe run, then read the pump's flow curve at that height rather than its rating at zero head. Aquascape publishes the curve and the maximum lift per model, and we will look them up if you call.

It depends on the width of the spillway and the lift to the top. Decide how much water you want going over the edge, measure the height from the water line to the spillway, then pick a pump whose flow curve still delivers that flow at that height.

One built to pass leaves and silt straight through instead of catching them on a screen. It is what belongs in a skimmer box. The AquaForce family and the PL and PN series are the solids handling models in this group.

Head is the vertical distance the pump has to push water upward. Maximum lift is the height at which flow falls to nothing. Useful flow always sits well below that figure, which is why the flow curve matters more than the maximum.

Sometimes, but the dedicated fountain pumps are sized for a basin feature rather than for a pond and a long waterfall run. Check the basin capacity and the discharge fitting on the fountain you are running.

Cord length decides whether the pump reaches a suitable outlet without an extension, and it is published by Aquascape per model rather than printed on our page. Do not run an extension into a wet skimmer to make up the difference.

Often not. Impellers, rotors, seals and volutes are published as replacement parts, and a clogged or worn impeller is the usual cause. Find the part number on the pump and check it there first.
