Small hydroponic growing systems
Indoor hydroponic gardens
Propagation reservoirs
Compact aquaponics systems
Small nutrient circulation setups
Small fountains and decorative water features
The HP550 includes adjustable flow control and a maximum pumping height of 0.95m.
PondMAX HydroPro HP1100 – 1,200L/h
Higher flow capacity for larger reservoirs and recirculating systems.
The HP1100 provides greater water movement for applications that require more circulation or additional pumping height.
With a maximum flow rate of 1,200 litres per hour and 24W power consumption, it is suitable for appropriately sized:
Hydroponic nutrient reservoirs
Small to medium aquaponics systems
Recirculating hydroponic systems
Irrigation and drip-feed setups
Flood and drain systems
Small ponds, fountains and water features
The HP1100 offers adjustable water flow and a maximum pumping height of 1.9m.
Key Features & Benefits
Built-In Adjustable Flow Control
Easily regulate the pump output to suit your growing system, reservoir or water feature. This provides flexibility when managing circulation and water delivery.
Durable Ceramic Shaft
The ceramic shaft is designed for durability and wear resistance, supporting reliable performance in clean-water and suitable nutrient circulation applications.
Robust Impeller Design
The durable impeller supports dependable water movement and can be accessed for cleaning and routine maintenance.
Energy-Efficient Operation
With power consumption of 10W for the HP550 and 24W for the HP1100, both models provide water circulation with relatively low electricity demand.
Compact Submersible Design
The small footprint allows the pump to fit inside suitable reservoirs, aquaponics tanks, water features and hydroponic systems without taking up excessive space.
Versatile Applications
Suitable for hydroponics, aquaponics, small ponds and decorative water circulation, subject to the required flow rate and pumping height.
Easy Installation and Maintenance
Connect suitable tubing, position the pump fully underwater and operate through an appropriate protected electrical supply. The impeller can be removed for regular cleaning.
2-Year Manufacturer Warranty
Backed by PondMAX's two-year manufacturer warranty, subject to warranty conditions.
Ideal for Hydroponic Systems
Reliable water circulation is important in hydroponics because plants depend on controlled water and nutrient delivery.PondMAX HydroPro pumps can help circulate nutrient solution through appropriately sized hydroponic systems, supporting more consistent movement of water and dissolved nutrients.
Potential applications include nutrient reservoir circulation, Deep Water Culture (DWC), recirculating systems, drip irrigation and flood and drain growing setups.Pump selection should take into account the required water flow, height difference, tubing resistance and operating schedule.
Suitable for Aquaponics Systems
Aquaponics relies on the movement of water between fish tanks, grow beds and other system components.The PondMAX HydroPro HP Series can be used in appropriately sized aquaponics installations to circulate water between system components.The adjustable flow control is especially useful when matching pump output to grow bed plumbing and water circulation requirements.For schools, home growers and smaller aquaponics projects, the HP550 or HP1100 may provide a practical circulation solution where the system's flow and head requirements are within the pump's capabilities.Important: Aquaponics pump selection should account for fish tank volume, required turnover, plumbing height, filtration and aeration requirements.
Suitable for Small Ponds and Water Features
The HydroPro series is also suitable for small garden ponds, decorative fountains and water features.These submersible pumps can help maintain water movement and support decorative water circulation.They are particularly useful for smaller installations where compact dimensions and adjustable flow are beneficial. For larger ponds, koi systems, substantial waterfalls or installations requiring dedicated biological filtration, a higher-capacity filtration pump may be required.
