Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I use this pump in both wet and dry installations?
A: Yes, Lifegard PG Pumps are designed for versatile installation in either wet (submersible) or dry (external) applications, providing flexibility for various pond and water feature configurations.
Q: How do I choose the right pump size?
A: Calculate your pond volume and desired turnover rate (typically 1-2 times per hour). For waterfalls, use 100-150 GPH per inch of waterfall width. Consider head height (vertical lift) which reduces actual flow rate.
Q: What makes these pumps energy-efficient?
A: Lifegard PG Pumps feature advanced motor design and Wet Rotor/Wet Bearing Technology that reduces energy consumption while maintaining high performance, lowering operating costs compared to traditional pumps.
Q: How often should I clean the pre-filter screen?
A: Clean the pre-filter screen every 4-6 weeks during active season, or more frequently in ponds with heavy debris. Regular cleaning maintains optimal flow and prevents clogging.
