Trotec garden pumps – The ideal solution for changing pond and plunge pool water quickly

As temperatures rise and the first sustained rays of spring sunshine arrive, the garden bursts into life with new growth. To maintain healthy and flourishing plants and gardens, regular spring maintenance tasks like cleaning the pond and checking the water in the garden pond are necessary.

Trotec submersible pumps keep your garden pond fresh and healthy

A partial or complete change of water is necessary if the garden pond’s water appears cloudy or greenish in spring, emits an unpleasant odour or has a high concentration of ammonia or nitrite. Trotec’s clear water and waste water submersible pumps are ideal for quick and easy water changes in the garden pond. With their high flow rates of up to 20,000 l/h, these pumps can significantly speed up both partial water exchanges and full water changes.

No matter the size of the pond or the condition of the water, Trotec’s TWP series of submersible pumps are designed to handle any garden challenge with their durable construction and extensive equipment for connecting hoses, pipelines and plug-in systems of different diameters.

Do I need a partial or full water change?

The amount of water that needs to be pumped out of the garden pond, swimming pond or plunge pool depends on the level of contamination and the measured water parameters.

How to assess the water quality:

• Appearance: Healthy pond water should be bright, transparent and largely clean.
• Consistency: Perfect pond water is clear and not yellow/green or sludgy.
• Odour: Does the water smell unpleasant or stale? If so, you need to take action.

No matter if you are planning a partial or complete water change, it is essential to check the pH level of the pond water. The optimum pH value of the pond depends on the specific needs of the plants and animals living in it. As a rule, the pH value should be between 7 and 8, which is considered neutral to slightly alkaline. A pH value of 7 is neutral, a value above 7 alkaline and a value below 7 acidic.

As a general rule: A pH value that is too high or too low can cause a range of problems. A low pH can cause toxic ammonia to accumulate and affect the growth of plants and animals. A high pH can cause nutrients to build up in the pond and encourage algae growth, resulting in poor water quality.

BW10 pH meter – for clear water quality in the garden pond

The BW10 pH meter can be used to determine accurately and reliably whether the water is acidic, alkaline or just right.

The compact pH meter allows for easy and straightforward measurement of pH values ranging from 0 to 14 within a temperature range of 0 to 50°C with just a simple button press – no more dealing with colour charts and test strips with complicated procedures. The BW10 electronic water tester is an ideal measuring device for those who want precise and accurate results for regular pH value measurement, and don’t want to rely on inaccurate water tests that may give false results if not used correctly.
