With such a wide range of pond vacuums available
it can appear daunting when trying to decide which vacuum to
choose.
These hints and tips will help you to make the
correct choice for your pond:
Large Ponds
or Heavily Stocked Ponds
For pond keepers who have large amounts of water
or reasonably heavily stocked ponds, it is logical to purchase one
of the larger pond vacuums.
The Gardena Aquamotion
is exclusive to Bradshaws. It removes up to 30mm
solids and is ideal for people with large ponds who want a
hassle-free vacuum.
The ever popular Pondovac, manufactured by Oase,
would also be an excellent choice for the discerning pond keeper.
The Pondovac 3 has the advantage of continuous operation (it does not
stop to empty) and comes with a 5 year guarantee.
Economical
Vacuums
The Pondovac Start
is a more economical alternative. It sucks up sludge
and collects it in a tank. When it's full it turns off, then
empties. It comes complete with a 2 year guarantee.
If you are looking for the most economical
vacuum, then we have the Tensor
Pondvac. This vacuum
is ideal for pond keepers who have no electrical supply
available near their pond. It is pumped by water flow from an
ordinary tap. This creates a vacuum in the head of the cleaner and
sucks up the muck from your pond bottom.
