There is no tubing with the pump. It will push the water about 3 inches in the air when submerged, if that helps.

No, there is just the pump. I don't think the pump could send water more tha n a few inches for it lacks that kind of power. You need to see if there is a different pump you could get.

No, just the pump with the suction cup on the bottom for the water fountain. I am sure you could put tubing on it.

No it does not, it just causes the water to bubble up from the bottom of the Catit fountain, sorry..

The few times I have run out of water, the pump has kept going. As long as the sun is out, it will continue. The instructions do tell you that prolonged periods with no water will shorten the life of the pump. I have a small birdbath and find I need to add water daily. If I am going out of town for a few days, I simply bring the fountain inside.

Yes it has plenty of power. It depends on how many feet below your tank the pump is located. For example if the plumbing is down in the basement of your house then this pump would not be suitable but, mine was pumping against 10 feet total and had plenty of power. There is an online calculator which can estimate the flow of your pump depending on the head pressure it has to pump against which you can search for. Hope this helps your decision.

How many will this control?:Up to 100watts of pumps/powerheads and they can be of any manufacture as long as they are 110/115 volt.I have 150 gallon tank thats 4 foot by 2 foot by 3 foot How many do i need ?:Depending on your flow needs (let's say for sps which of course you need really high flow), you can place the Koralia evolution pumps in crossing or continual (circular) flow patterns. The larger ones should stay near the top to move the most water around your reef, and use smaller models for flow near the bottom. On a 120, I used 2 Evolution 1400's near the top, 2 700's at mid height and 2 Nano's at the bottom, using a simple 1 outlet to 3 outlet expander on the controller and it worked great.

The current draw varies based on the lift or head height you wish to pump the water up to. It is supposed to be a 25 watt pump, drawing 2-2.5 amps. Hope this helps...

This is designed for inline installation in two inch pipe with no adapters necessary. It does include adapters for 1.5" pipe, but you would have to supply your own adapters for 2" up to your 2.5". If your pools flow design requires 2.5" pipe I would recommend an "Off-Line" chlorinator as opposed to this "In-Line" design. Off-Line feeders also seem to an be easier install on existing systems.

I'm not very savvy when it comes to pumps -- I need a pump to drain the water out of my garden fountains, so I can change the water and keep it fresh so the algae won't grow. Do I need to buy any additional pieces with this or will it come with everything I need? Thank you!

I have this model. it has a float, runs only when the water reaches a level to turn on the pump. Also if wired to a furnace equiped for the shut off safty that, will not allow the furnace to start if the pump is not working properly to pump out the water in the reservoir.

yes it does, as long as you can cut or allow electricity onto it, i use it to drain the water out of my 150US Gl FishTank, and as a water shaker, this is pump really worth its price, i would even pay 50% more the price, just too good, i paid about 27 usd like 1 year ago for it. Hope this helps, Best regards

Hello J. Taneri, I've never really pumped any distance with mine the only info I could give you is what I have done with mine-I've pumped from a stream- with the pump drawing the water from about 8 feet down to a barrel in my Jeep and the discharge hose is app 12 feet long. It took awhile to fill the 55 gallons maybe about 3 gal per minute. Maybe I was over exerting the pump the way I was using it??? I failed to prime the pump one time i got too impatient and burned the impeller. I got a replacement and it works fine again. any other questions please ask. jerry mayers Hello J.

We had to purchase a new one but don't remember if it came with the tubing--we used the current one. I would warn you my previous water heater only lasted 4 years--had to call the fire department because it was burning up. I was hesitant on purchasing another one but ended up doing so. I did do some more background checking after the fact and found out that this heater is really not worth the money/hassle. After more searching, I could have bought a whole new system with better ratings than what I paid for just the heater.

You have to plug in the pump. A solar pwered version would be great but i dont remember seeing one. I have to say, if you dont mind cleaning it once a week or so, it is a great product for a small pond.

No. The function of your solar heating pump is a steady, low flow and if your solar panel is on a roof, say a lift of 10' to 15', the pump must be rated to that height. Sump pumps are designed to have a high flow rate for short duration, just the opposite of what you will need.

Hi I have a two tier fountain and the pump is almost enough . You need a more powerful pump .

I have mine hard wired to TWO, Dasol 135w, 18 volt nominal solar panels at 45 feet water level pumping up hill 100 feet and I get approximately 200 to 400 gallons per day depending on solar aspect the pump handles it perfectly slows down and speeds up and just works flawlessly knock on wood, this is my second pump as the first pump the basket that runs the diaphragm broke when I was messing with it. For the price you cannot beat it..Gkwholesale rules

The volume of water would depend on the amount of sunlight hitting the solar panel which controls the operating speed of the pump. The velocity of the water being pumped can be adjusted by the diameter of the tubing used. The smaller the diameter, the higher the water pressure and speed.

I've used mine for a couple of years, and can't think of an easy way to daisy chain them together. You would need to buy "tees" and start the tubing at the pump, extend the tubing to the ViaAqua. Cut the tubing, place the tee so that the rightmost leg is connected to the tubing coming from the pump, the bottom leg to the VIaAqua, and the left one to more tubing going to the next tee. Repeat and finally terminate at the last ViaAqua. If you draw it out, I think you'll see it's not difficult. Take the diagram to your local fish store, and they should be able to provide the parts.
