| Excellent pump - this the second one I now have in use. Very quiet and a lot more economoical to run, apparently, than the old Prima 15000. I have adapted the plumbing so did not need the variable flow or wildlife protection parts - I just needed a pump to send water back to the pond after going through my filters. Will definitely replace my third and final Prima with another of these when it packs up. |

Performance
The new Aquaforce range has improved flow rates to ensure water clarity and waterfall power are optimised. The range also has improved wattages, which means running costs are reduced.
The motors feature a water-cooling system, which ensures that the pumps are kept at a constant temperature and reduce the risk of overheating. Ceramic bearings along with thrust washers ensure the motors are ultra reliable.
Features
All Aquaforces come with a wildlife protection insert that allows the inlet solids diameter to be reduced 6mm/10mm (dependant on the model) to 2mm. This prevents wildlife such as tadpoles, newts and small fish getting into the cage.
The new larger Aquaforces (6000, 8000,12000 & 15000) are all able to operate amphibiously.
The larger models also feature a second inlet, which allows an additional skimmer or satellite filter to be operated. Additionally the included flow control also allows the consumer to adjust the flow of water to their waterfall or filter. It also allows the amount of water being drawn from the second inlet to be controlled.
Easy Installation and Maintenance
Sturdy carry handle helps with installation and maintenance.
The cage clips allow the consumer easy, tool free access to the pump for maintenance.
As with all Hozelock Cyprio products the new Aquaforce pumps have a full spares support.
