Little Giant Pumps
In 1941 little giant pumps created the world’s first self-contained, motorized, electric submersible pump that could be used for a variety of purposes. It soon became the model for hundreds of designs that can now be found worldwide, but Little Giant still, to this day, sets the standard for quality and reliability in submersible pumps.
For those who have a pond, waterfall, statue, fountain spray, or are installing one in their garden, selecting the right pump requires understanding some basics. If circulating water only, it’s important to remember that the filtering system is important. Water from an outdoor spigot contains small particles that can easily clog the smaller portals in these features so any pump of this kind should have a built-in filter.
Little giant pumps designed for different purposes and knowing exactly what you need is important. Some are designed for circulation only ponds while others are built to create the pressure needed to create that spray or drip needed for to create a pleasing sound that soothes the mind and spirit. Recirculating pumps for ponds exchange water every one to three hours and can significantly reduce the buildup of algae and fungi that can harm plants and aquatic life that may be included in a pond.
The tubing that runs from the pump should be hidden in the stonework around ponds with water being discharged as far away from the pump as possible. Of course, if a waterfall is included, a much strong flow is required. It often requires 100-200 gallons per hour based on the width of the waterfall in inches.
If a waterfall is 36 inches wide, this would mean water needs to be recirculated at a rate of 3600-7200 gallons per hour, which is significantly more than a smaller water feature. Although this sounds excessive, it actually makes a beautiful waterfall since the more water circulated the stronger the flow.
The lift of the waterfall is also an important consideration. This is measured from the spillway to the surface of the pond. When selecting a pump it’s important that the size of the pond, the lift, and the width of the waterfall all be taken into consideration in order to ensure that enough power is provided to ensure the system works as visualized.
Little giant pumps come in a variety of models, power levels, and designs in order to ensure that your system works perfectly for many years to come. However, for many people, making the right purchase the first time takes insight provided by professionals in the field. A simple call will often resolve any concerns and lead you to the right submersible pump for your system.
