High-Efficiency Dirty Water Pumps for Fountains, Filters, Waterfalls & More

The AquaForte O-Series Plus Pond Pumps offer a perfect blend of powerful water movement, low energy consumption, and smart engineering, making them ideal for a wide variety of pond and water feature applications. Whether you're running a filtration system, waterfall, or decorative fountain, these pumps are built for reliability, efficiency, and long-lasting performance.

Designed with advanced electronics and safety features, each pump includes dry-run protection and anti-blockage technology to prevent overheating or motor failure. Their quiet operation, durable ceramic shaft, and no-copper construction make them safe for fish and wildlife.

They are capable of handling solids up to 6mm in size, making them perfect for installations that require debris-tolerant, maintenance-friendly operation. Additionally, the pumps can be used submerged or dry-mounted (inlet must remain below water level), giving you installation flexibility.
