The guy who built my pond bought the pump a Home Depot. It did not last but a few months. I was able to get them to replace it as it had a 1 year warrenty. That one lasted, humm, about a 1 year and a half. I bought a more expense pump at Home Depot that may have lasted close to 2 years. This weekend it went out.

The guy who built my pond had only built preform ponds, mine was the first liner pond he had done. I think he did a good job on the pond. But after he put in the pump I ask about him installing a filter in front of the pump. He did not think it was needed. I discovered halfway into the job he was not on the internet either. I was shocked about this.

Suggested he might want to do that to see what others were doing with their ponds.
I am going to search past post on pump. There was something posted earlier this year I think on pumps that was suggested as being a good choice and was on sale at that time. I thought about getting it at the time but you know, I did not need it then. If anyone has a suggestion, I am open to ideas.
