The Pump used by Contractors for years!
Aquascape has engineered the essence of the pond ecosystem. The pump circulates the water from the skimmer putting it through the filter mats and sending it over to the bottom of BIOFALLS where it passes up through another set of filter mats and media.

Quality Control
Aquascape stopped shipping the Aquascape Pro pumps in the summer of 2008 to retool the seals on the pumps that had caused some of the pumps to fail prematurely. Since the new seals have been installed and the pumps released in the fall of 2008, virtually no problems have been reported with seal failures and they are again considered one of the elite pond pumps in the world..
Aquascape's horizontal pond pumps, from the AquascapePRO line, are energy efficient and low maintenance. Quiet and efficient, these pumps have stainless steel construction, along with rubber feet to reduce vibration. With high head heights and high flow rates, the AquascapePRO line (also known as SFA), excels in the water garden. A vortex impeller for solid handling proves useful in pond applications

Question:I have a 2-3 year old SFA10000. What kind of oil does it need?
Aquascape Tech Answer: This pump takes 12oz of a Mobil DTE Light non-additive non-detergent turbine oil. However, if it has not lost any then you shouldn't need to add or change it (that is one school of thought). Or the other thought is; changing the oil is a good maintenance practice if done by a shop that can pump in the oil and remove the air. If he is going to change it, this method is ideal because it is not like changing the oil in your car.
The Aquascape Pro Pumps takes 5 oz of the Mobile DTE Light Oil. The port is located on the side of the pump under the discharge. It is a hex-head screw that will be removed to add the oil.
