My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

What pond pump is being used here?

12 years ago
The gallons per hour rating must be high to move this much water.

    Hi Calvin,
    It is a combination of two pumps driving the falls. One submersible which is providing approximately 8,000 gph and one external filter pump which is split between these falls and a stream in another portion of the project. The total flow over these falls is roughly 11,000 gallons per hour. Let us know if you have any other questions.
    Thanks,

      are you able to adjust the flow of water by turning the pump up or down? Thanks

      Hi supence,
      Not on this project. The only way to adjust the flow would be to turn off one of the pumps. In other systems we have specified variable speed pumps which allow you to control the speed of the motor.

      do you have good luck with the variable speed pumps?

      Yes, in the applications we specified them, we have.
