This submersible water pump is designed to be incredibly quiet, making it perfect for small aquariums, fish tanks, ponds, and more. It’s easy to use and clean, with no tools required for detachment. You can adjust the flow rate with a knob, and it’s small enough to hide in your setup easily. Just make sure it’s fully submerged in water for optimal performance, and it comes with suction cups for easy installation.
Tips:
- The package includes a US standard plug suitable for the US, Canada, and Mexico.
- Ensure the pump is fully submerged in water before powering on to avoid damage.
- Avoid running the pump without water as it can reduce its lifespan and cause noise.
- Clean the pump with clean water if it gets stuck with mud, garbage, or sea salt.
- The recommended operating temperature range is 40-95°F.
- Some water residue may be present due to professional testing before shipment, which is normal.
- The inner shaft has a bit of lubricant; for sensitive environments, use the pump in a separate tank temporarily.
- Regularly clean the pump and add olive oil to the rotor if needed.
Problem & Solution:
- If the pump doesn’t work, check the power source, plug, and for any remaining water.
- If the pump is noisy, detach and clean it.
- If the flow is insufficient, check the control valve, impeller, pipes/strainer for damage or blockage, and the stability of the electricity supply.
Cleaning & Maintenance:
- Unplug the pump and clean the outlet by removing the control valve.
- Remove the basefoot screws, take off the base strainer, and clean the impeller before reinstalling it.
