Can this be used for continuous duty from the house to a fish pond using1200 GPH pump or would 12 gauge be better

You have to check from your pump documents what requirements they have. It should be told in specs, what gauge and for how long distance max.. If your distance is longer then said in spec, then you will need heavier gauge.

I've used this cord at continuous maximum load (120v 12A) for over three days without any issues, so this will definitely serve your need. The 12-gauge is thinner wire than this 10-gauge cord, so it's worse, not better, electrically. The 12-gauge may be sufficient for your needs. 12 gauge shouldn't be used for continuous loads above 9.3A, so check your pump's electrical rating.

I am sure it can, I have been using mine continuously while I am building a house. It serves me power from the Power Pole to my camper and has been doing so since late April and no problems. I must say, it is a very good product and I would highly recommend it. What I do is where it connects to the other plug, I put a little cover over it to protect it from the elements.

There is no gauge included with the supplied pump. That said, there is no threat of over-inflating with the foot-pump provided. It is simply not capable of of producing a PSI level high enough to damage the boat.

I have this pump connected to a water tank, and pump through a paper filter. It has enough power to do that. But drawing up from the 10' depths of a pool and pushing through a diatomaceous earth filter would take a bit more. I would recommend a slightly larger pump.

We use a rv pump for our triton can be 12 volt or 110 electric hope this helps

I do not believe this is for your application. This is an above ground pump.

My info says 2.8 amps at 12 volts. If you need more info just GoogleRule 20R Bilge pump and you can pretty much find everything you need. Hope this helps!

No, but as long as the pump is DC powered and it is no more than 0-24 volts (max rated controller voltage) you should be good

It depends on how much current the pump draws. If it's less then 5.8 amps, it should be good.

I installed the pump at 300 ft. GPM is not adjustable and dependent on your pipe, valves etc size. 12 GPM is maximum. If your well replenishment rate is low install a Franklin Electric QD Pumptec - Pump Protector.

Not a use I would recommend for this pump. For watering a garden through a hose, and assuming the garden is more than 10-15 feet away from the rain barrel, you need a pump with greater capacity. Reminder, this is a battery operated pump for occasional use and for light duty.

I connected it to 18 gauge, but I don't think there should be a problem connecting to 12 gauge

It's not expensive for a 1 1/2 hp pump that is 110/ 240 v when I shopped around I found the MSRP was false and varied end user prices were much closer. Watch for shipping fees pump is heavy. Use ground if possible

Advertised to do 1250-1450 GPH- but that will depend on the depth from which you pump. It is a good pump and buy estimation, I think you can calculate it will pump at least a 1000 GPH from a depth of 10 feet on a continous basis if it is a new pump and a steady electrical flow of 110 V. The weight is due to cast iron. In years past when it was made in Wayne, Ohio and not China, I think it was made of aluminum and very easy to handle.

Carol it runs better with real good 12 volt voltage. I ran off of the twelve volt motor that lifts the trailer up and down. I ran it to a standard 120 plug. It looks like it is 120 but it is only 12 volts from the pump I pot a regular cord that plugs in. I marked it so I plug it in the same way each time. I think the pump will run back wards if you reverse the power. That should give you a good start. Have fun and your welcome

Depends on how much pressure of water pressure you want. I'm using the pump for home use. The 1 HP pump is sufficient for home use

I use my portable pump because a only need up to 100lb but is better and easier use a high pressure pump with gauge

Everywhere and everything I've read says 12 gauge. At 14, you only get 13 amps max and this machine is designed for max effectiveness at 13.5 amps. Although I was tempted to get a 14 ga since the cord would be thinner and easier to use and cheaper, I opted for the 12 thinking long-term and minimizing any opportunity for this machine to brick due to my lack of care or proper equipment. But that's just me and my two cents. :)
