Pond Boss Forums AERATION Systems questions Pump suggestions

Thanks. I agree - it looks like I probably need about 12,000 GPH for the waterfall. I'm reading that Dynamic Head is measured at about 1 foot for every 10 horizontal feet, plus the static head. So at 300 feet horizontal plus maybe 6 feet vertical, that's 36 feet of DH?

Another site I read says that for a 3" pipe (which I think is what we have), I'd be looking at DH of about 30 feet.

So anyway, it sounds like I need about 12,000 GPH at somewhere between 30-36 feet DH.

Looks like the Sequence Titan 18000 GPH would work well. Data sheet says 12k GPH at 30' DH, and 10k GPH at 35' DH, and it only uses about 2-2.5kWh! That would save us $400-$500 per month in electric, meaning the pump would pay for itself in 6 months or less.
