Since our pond is not very deep, the new pond pump had to be as flat as possible. The AQUA ACTIVE ECO 6000 pond pump is the best choice for this criterion, but also other criteria that were important when purchasing. Accordingly, we also bought this model, as can be seen from this experience report.  

That is why it became the AQUA ACTIVE ECO 6000 pond pump

Small and compact, robustly processed, as long as possible a connection cable and a high flow rate, these were clear buying criteria we had when buying a pond pump. The AQUA ACTIVE ECO 6000 pond pump was completed as already mentioned. We also have the good protection from dirt particles and the connections convinced us with the pond pump.  

Technical to the pond pump

The outer shell of the AQUA ACTIVE ECO 6000 pond pump is made entirely of plastic. There is a small electric motor inside the pond pump. This motor creates a discharge height of up to four meters for the pond pump and a maximum pumping capacity of up to 6000 liters per hour. The pond pump is powered by a 230 volt connection. For this purpose this is also equipped with a 10 m long cable and a plug. The AQUA ACTIVE ECO 6000 pond pump is equipped with three connections, two inputs and one output. So that the pond pump can also fulfill a high delivery capacity, the suction area is correspondingly large. There is protection to protect the suction surface. This provides effective protection of dirt particles with a size of up to 10 mm. The pond pump is designed in a very flat design. It comes to a weight of 6 kg and comes to dimensions of 43 x 26 x 18 cm. The manufacturer grants a three-year warranty on the pond pump. In color, the pond pump is held in a reddish hue.  

Installation options for the submersible pump

The AQUA ACTIVE ECO 6000 Pond Pump has two options for installing it. So you can set up and operate the pond pump on the outside of the pond or directly in the water. This gives you the free choice at the installation site for the pond pump. In general, the installation of the pond pump is good. Here are also the connections to mention, which one can turn per requirement.  

Safety at the AQUA ACTIVE ECO 6000 pond pump

The safety of the AQUA pond pump was also thought of. Especially when the AQUA ACTIVE ECO 6000 pond pump is clogging or otherwise fails for a reason, this is no problem. For this purpose, the pond pump is equipped with a thermoswitch. This thermoswitch prevents the pond pump from being damaged by the electric motor. The thermoswitch also serves as an overload protection.  

Operation of the pond pump AQUA

How easy the installation of the AQUA ACTIVE ECO 6000 pond pump is, has already been explained. In general, the operation is very simple, so you can also adjust the performance of the pond pump. In a total of five stages, the pumping capacity of the submersible pump can be adjusted according to requirements. However, the maintenance of the pond pump is also simple in connection with the operation. The weight can be easily removed from the water at any time and cleaned for example. One comes well to the filter, without which the pond pump has to be disassembled. Also this is a big advantage with the pond pump.
