How It Works
WaterMaster Clear Pumps are designed for applications where water has already been filtered or where debris is not a concern. Unlike solids-handling pumps, these clear water pumps maximize efficiency and flow rate by focusing on moving clean water. They're ideal for use after mechanical filtration, in fountain applications, or in systems with effective pre-filtration.
Ideal Applications
Perfect for fountains and decorative water features, waterfalls and streams with pre-filtered water, circulation systems with mechanical filtration, pressure filter systems, UV clarifier circulation, and any application where water is already clean and debris-free. Not recommended for direct pond pumping where leaves and debris are present.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What's the difference between Clear Water Pumps and Solids Pumps?
A: Clear Water Pumps (WMC Series) are designed for pre-filtered water and maximize flow efficiency. Solids Pumps (WMS Series) can handle debris and are designed for direct pond pumping. Use Clear Water Pumps after mechanical filtration or in debris-free applications.
Q: Which model do I need for my water feature?
A: Choose based on your desired flow rate. WMC1200 for up to 1,200 GPH, WMC2000 for up to 2,000 GPH, WMC3000 for up to 3,000 GPH, and WMC4000 for up to 4,000 GPH. Consider your waterfall width, desired flow, and head height when selecting.
Q: Can I use this pump directly in my pond?
A: These pumps are designed for clear water applications. For direct pond pumping where leaves and debris are present, use a Savio WaterMaster Solids Pump instead. Clear Water Pumps work best in skimmers or after mechanical filtration.
Q: Are these pumps energy efficient?
A: Yes! WaterMaster Clear Pumps are designed to deliver high flow rates while minimizing power consumption, making them cost-effective for continuous operation.
Q: Can I run this pump continuously?
A: Absolutely! These pumps feature continuous-duty motors designed for 24/7 operation, perfect for ponds and water features that run year-round.
Q: What discharge kits are compatible?
A: WaterMaster Clear Pumps are compatible with Savio discharge kits designed for WMC Series pumps, including kits for Standard Skimmers, Compact Skimmers, and Waterfall Wells.
Q: How do I winterize this pump?
A: In freezing climates, remove the pump before winter, clean it thoroughly, and store it in a frost-free location. If using a Gator Lock discharge kit, the quick disconnect makes removal easy.
Q: What maintenance does this pump require?
A: Minimal maintenance is required. Periodically check the pump intake for any debris, ensure proper water levels, and clean the impeller if flow decreases. Regular inspection ensures long-term reliability.
